Release Notes for siproxd-0.5.0
|
|
===============================
|
|
|
|
As quite some changes have been made now, I decided to make another
|
|
release - even if some new feature are not yet completely ready,
|
|
like IPTABLES (netfilter) support in the RTP proxy.
|
|
However, it includes some important bugfixes and some other goodies.
|
|
|
|
Major changes since 0.4.2:
|
|
- Feature: Proxy chaining - siproxd itself may now use an additional
|
|
outbound proxy. This allows for example to chain serveal siproxd
|
|
(cross multiple firewalls).
|
|
|
|
- Feature: Includes *preliminary* support for IPTABLES (netfilter)
|
|
based systems. Current restrictions: The executable 'iptables'
|
|
must reside in /sbin/iptables. Chroot jail not working.
|
|
Must be run as root, don't let siproxd change the UID.
|
|
This item is stil under work, it may or may not work for you.
|
|
|
|
- Feature: Some changes to have siproxd compile under Solaris.
|
|
Runtime is not tested yet.
|
|
|
|
- Fix: Bugfixes and cleanup for building of FreeBSD
|
|
|
|
- Fix: Chroot jail did not work properly and resultet in ERRORs
|
|
during hostname lookups (gethostbyname)
|
|
|
|
General Overview:
|
|
- May be used as pure Outbound proxy (registration of local UAs
|
|
to a 3rd party registrar)
|
|
- Fli4l OPT_SIP (still experimental) available, check
|
|
http://home.arcor.de/jsffm/fli4l/
|
|
- supports Linux and FreeBSD (other BSD derivates not yet tested)
|
|
- SIP (RFC3261) Proxy for SIP based softphones hidden behind a
|
|
masquerading firewall
|
|
- Includes an RTP data stream proxy for *incoming* audio data
|
|
(outgoing RTP data should be handled by IP masquerading by the firewall)
|
|
- Includes Linux/IPCHAINS support for UDP masquerading tunnels as RTP proxy
|
|
(Kernels 2,2,x so far - 2.4.x with IPTABLES is not yet supported)
|
|
- Port range to be used for incoming RTP traffic is configurable
|
|
(-> easy to set up apropriate firewall rules for incoming traffic)
|
|
- RTP proxy can handle multiple RTP streams (eg. audio + video)
|
|
within a single SIP session.
|
|
- Multiple local users/hosts can be masqueraded simultaneously
|
|
- Supports running in a chroot jail and changing user-ID after startup
|
|
- All configuration done via one simple ascii configuration file
|
|
- Proxy Authentication for registration of local clients (User Agents)
|
|
with individual passwords for each user
|
|
- Logging to syslog in daemon mode
|
|
- Access control (IP based) for incoming traffic
|
|
- RPM package available
|
|
- works with "dial-up" conenctions (dynamic IP addresses)
|
|
- The host part of UA registration entries can be masqueraded
|
|
(mask_host, masked_host config items). Some Siemens SIP phones seem to
|
|
need this 'feature'.
|
|
|
|
Requirements:
|
|
- pthreads (Linux)
|
|
- glibc2 / libc5 / uClibc
|
|
- libosip2 (libosip1 is no longer supported!)
|
|
|
|
Currently tested on:
|
|
- Redhat 6.0 (Kernel 2.2.x, Glibc)
|
|
- Redhat 7.2 (Kernel 2.4.x, Glibc)
|
|
- SUSE 5.3 (kernel 2.0.x, libc5)
|
|
- Redhat 7.2 build against uClibc
|
|
- should run on others Linux distributions as well.
|
|
- FreeBSD 4.7-STABLE (compilation)
|
|
|
|
Reported to build on:
|
|
- OpenBSD 2.9
|
|
|
|
Reported interoperability (tested with softphones):
|
|
- Grandstream BudgeTone-100 series (only works with IPCHAINS RTP proxy)
|
|
- Linphone (local and remote UA) (http://www.linphone.org)
|
|
- Kphone (local and remote UA) (http://www.wirlab.net/kphone/)
|
|
- MSN messenger 4.6 (remote and local UA)
|
|
|
|
Known bugs:
|
|
There will be...
|
|
|
|
If you port siproxd to a new platform or do other kinds of changes
|
|
or bugfixes that might be of general interest, please drop me a
|
|
line. Also if you intend to include siproxd into a distribution
|
|
I'd be happy to get a short notice.
