Re: [SR-Users] set_advertised_address with variable

[Patrick Wakano]

Hi Daniel!
Thanks for the effort! Really appreciate it!
I am not using the 5.2 version yet, so it I won't be able to test it right
away...

Best regards,
Patrick Wakano

Re: [SR-Users] set_advertised_address with variable

[Daniel-Constantin Mierla]

Hello,

yesterday afternoon I pushed an alternative for allowing setting the
address and port in local Via headers using XAVP, see:

  - https://www.kamailio.org/wiki/cookbooks/devel/core#xavp_via_fields

I didn't have the time to do any tests, but was in master before
freezing code for 5.2.x series, so it will be in the next major release.
Test and if there is any bug, report and it will be fixed.

I also looked at extending the set_advertised_address(), but it actually
uses pointers to some static values available at kamailio startup, so
making that dynamic would have been more complex to do in a short time.

Cheers,
Daniel

Re: [SR-Users] set_advertised_address with variable

[Patrick Wakano]

Thanks for the replies Daniel and Henning!
The problem with the listen address is that it can't be set at run time per
call, for example, after reading the value from the DB And also it is
way too dirty to use the set_advertised_address with a static string
value
Long story short, we have a weird telco setup which only allows the SIP
trunk to terminate in their own network, which then puts my Kamailio behind
a NAT box only for them.  And because they are the biggest carrier in that
country, we will have to workaround the issue.
Kamailio itself has only one network interface to communicate with everyone
(other provider and extensions), so I was trying to actually only set the
advertise address before sending call to this specific telco. For calls to
anyone else I would not set the advertise address. Looks simple, but seems
not that easy to implement.

Cheers,
Patrick Wakano

Re: [SR-Users] set_advertised_address with variable

[Daniel-Constantin Mierla]

Hello,

the pseudo-variable is read only.

The recommended way would be to use listen with advertise, like:

listen=udp:1.2.3.4:5060 advertise 5.6.7.8:5060

That will take care of both Via and Record-Route headers as well as
matching myself, no need to do other stuff in route blocks. Doesn't work
for you?

Cheers,
Daniel

Hi Patrick,

about the old core function - I think that indeed some of them are still
missing PV support. Regarding your question, have you already tried to use
this PV:

Best regards,

Henning

Re: [SR-Users] set_advertised_address with variable

[Patrick Wakano]

Sorry to annoy again, but I did find a couple of more emails asking around
about the possibility to pass a variable to the set_advertised_address, but
no one was replied
How is the status of these old core functions that don't accept variables
as parameters? Is it something being worked on?

Kind regards,
Patrick Wakano

[SR-Users] set_advertised_address with variable

[Patrick Wakano]

Hello list,
Hope you all doing fine!

I am using version 5.0.7 and I was trying to use the set_advertised_address
with an avp variable but it does not replace with the avp value
I then find out this thread
https://lists.kamailio.org/pipermail/sr-users/2016-March/092327.html, in
which is mentioned:

*"I expect those functions not to support pvs, but I think this issomething
to address in 5.0 and get all core functions working with pvs."*

Looks like this was actually not done is that correct? Is there any
plan to do it?
In my case I want to use the set_advertised_address after reading the value
from DB, so I can't use the advertised_address or listen options Any
idea on how I could achieve that?

Thank you,
Kind regards,
Patrick Wakano
