September 2023 marked the 3rd edition of OpenSIPIt -- the online interoperability testing event for VoIP, SIP and related open-source technologies. This edition, the event featured a hackathon as well, where developers could either try to win some rewards (sponsored by Sippy Software) by completing a specific C/Python coding task or just spend the time … Continue reading Thoughts after Our Participation in OpenSIPIt’03

Our previous post presented SIPssert - an OpenSIPS Testing framework that does conformance testing for VoIP platforms (and not only). In this post we will describe how the OpenSIPS project has already started to benefit from the SIPssert capabilities in order to detect and prevent bugs as well as to avoid regressions and ensure that … Continue reading SIPssert and the journey of testing OpenSIPS
A SIP system/platform consists of multiple components, that interact in various ways to provide complex features (such as call routing, call pickup, registration and authentication, call parking, conferencing, IVRs and others). Each of the component that takes part of the system consists of both a software and its configuration, therefore in order to verify the … Continue reading SIPssert – an OpenSIPS Testing Framework
The majority of SIP User Agents still only support the MESSAGE method for providing Instant Messaging. However, modern Unified Communications(UC) ecosystems and more advanced messaging services, such as RCS(Rich Communication Services), are built on top of Session Mode messaging, which uses the MSRP protocol. With the addition of the new msrp_gateway module, OpenSIPS 3.3 introduces … Continue reading MSRP Gateway
Using a media relay server (such as RTPProxy, RTPEngine or MediaProxy) in your VoIP system is a rather common requirement due to various reasons: NATted clients media handling, legal compliance (recording) requirements or for offering enhanced services, etc. Thus, in order to provide high availability for your services, you also need to consider it for … Continue reading Media high availability/re-anchoring using OpenSIPS 3.2
The new Call API project consists of a standalone server able to serve a set of API commands that can be used to control SIP calls (such as start a new call, put a call on hold, transfer it to a different destination, etc.). In order to provide high performance throughput, the server has been … Continue reading Calls management using the new Call API tool
In order to provide secure SIP communication over TLS connections, OpenSIPS uses the OpenSSL library, probably the most widely used open-source TLS & SSL library across the Internet. The fact that it is so popular and largely used makes it more robust, therefore a great choice to enforce security in a system! That was the … Continue reading The OpenSIPS and OpenSSL journey
A hot backup means redundancy, redundancy means more uptime, more uptime means a better SLA, a better SLA means happier customers and more money. Building redundancy is a must when moving your service into production. And a typical approach for achieving redundancy is by implementing an active - backup setup with full realtime synchronization between … Continue reading Achieving service redundancy in two steps with unified clustering in OpenSIPS 3.0
As time goes by, code, pull requests and patches for an open-source project will naturally keep arriving in a steady stream. Depending on the volume of these contributions, some projects end up doing just well with a single maintainer, while others require an entire team of maintainers, each specializing in one of the project's major … Continue reading A Better Way of Saying “Thank You!” to OpenSIPS Contributors
The OpenSIPS Summit 2018 is hosting in Amsterdam two different training sessions, dedicated to two different VoIP projects - an official OpenSIPS training and an official FreeSWITCH training. Yes, that is correct and it is a premiere - an official and certified FreeSWITCH training taking place for the first time in Europe! So, this year, … Continue reading Two training sessions, two projects, one event – OpenSIPS Summit 2018
