Re: [Server-devel] [XSCE] Proposal | SIP VoIP server on XSCE

2016-10-14 Thread Samuel Greenfeld
The downside to SIP is that if you leave a SIP server open on the Internet
which allows calls without authenticated registration (even by accident)
you will find dozens of systems trying to proxy long-distance &
international telephone calls through it.  If they can get through,
thousands of dollars of those calls may be billed to you.

SIP also has some firewall issues, although those can be mitigated with
proxies, a STUN server, and the proper configuration.

IAX2 historically has been meant to be an "Inter-Asterisk" server trunking
protocol, not something for individual clients.

This looks interesting, but I would prefer to stick with SIP

Reason:
1. It is extremely scalable from running on tiny openWRT routers to big
servers
2. It is supported by a large number of free/open clients on ALL platforms.
There is also a webRTC socket for it.

The only current drawback of Kamailio right now, is there dont seem to be
ootb rpms available for arm. If there is a SIP server out there with ARM
packages, would love to test it, or otherwise - compile kamailio for ARM

This is a big drawback of IAX it seems, especially in a mesh setup, where
in many cases, the available bandwidth between clients may be higher via
direct node routes compared with the bandwidth via the server route. It
seems SIP will utilize the network more efficiently in a mesh topology.

Yesterday we were testing this on the server, and two nodes with three
client. The data was being sent directly client -- node -- node -- client,
and virtually no bandwidth was being used on the server. :)

Will look into IAX2. Is it supported by apps on different clients? For SIP,
there are usually many client options available on various platforms.

What server/service are you using? Look at IAX2 as well. Usually IAX2 does
better on networks because unlike SIP, session initiation and voice call
happen on the same port.

I think it's a good idea. Are you thinking Asterix? Does it change networking 
or just sit on top?

Subject: [XSCE] Proposal | SIP VoIP server on XSCE

Hi,

A SIP server on the XSCE will allow for VOIP services (audio, video, text). 
There are numerous SIP clients on various platforms so it seems a good protocol 
and standard to build upon.

I have already included a SIP server in the upcoming deployment of XSCE and 
mesh in Spiti, north India.

Thoughts?

Best,
Anish
