PBXMate

About​

This article is a case study about integrating FreeSWITCH with PBXMate

General Information​

The PBXMate software product from SoliCall is designed to improve voice quality by canceling echo, canceling noise and monitoring quality indicators. This article describes, in details, one option to integrating the PBXMate with FreeSWITCH in which both products are installed on the same Linux machine and a DNS is being used.

Solution Architecture​

The following two figures show the flow for both SIP messages and RTP messages.

Figure 1 was missing from legacy FreeSWITCH wiki

Figure 1. Flow of SIP signaling.

Figure 2. Flow of RTP data.

Figure 2. Flow of RTP data.

Prerequisites​

For the purpose of this integration the prerequisites are:

  1. DNS server.
  2. FreeSWITCH must have configured default gateway.
  3. PBXMate installed on the same machine as the FreeSWITCH.
  4. For testing, a SIP client that allows modifying the port number of the SIP server.

Configuration​

Configuring DNS​

To allow handling on port other than 5060 it is necessary to use the following DNS SRV records:

  1. _sip._udp.pbxmate IN SRV 1 10 5062 pbxmate
  2. pbxmate IN A 78.46.120.13

5062 is the port number on which the the PBXMate was configured to listen. After the entries have been edited, you can test it.

Configuring FreeSWITCH​

Create a profile «pbxmate»​

Since the PBXMate includes functions to handle RTP traffic, this function is not required from the FreeSWITCH.

  1. Running «cd conf/sip_profiles/» go to the folder of SIP profiles;
  2. Running «cp internal.xml pbxmate.xml» copy the profile «internal» to the profile «pbxmate»;
  3. Edit the newly created profile file;
  4. Change the profile name – <profile name=«pbxmate»>;
  5. Remove the line <X-PRE-PROCESS cmd=«include» data=«internal/*.xml»/>;
  6. Set the port value on which FreeSWITCH listens without handling RTP traffic – <param name=«sip-port» value=«15060»/>;
  7. By removing comment symbols from <param name=«inbound-bypass-media» value=«true»/> line, permitting bypass RTP traffic by FreeSWITCH;
  8. Fixing the registration of SIP clients in the domain «pbxmate.network-engineer.ru» – <param name=«force-register-domain» value=«pbxmate.network-engineer.ru»/>;
  9. Do the same with the element «force-subscription-domain» – <param name=«force-subscription-domain» value=« pbxmate.network-engineer.ru »/>;
  10. Do the same with the element «force-register-db-domain» – <param name=«force-register-db-domain» value=« pbxmate.network-engineer.ru »/>.

After making the above changes in the newly created profile you can test it.

Create a directory «pbxmate»​

In order to ensure processing of calls coming from the pbxmate, we need to create files that describe the SIP clients.

  1. Go to the folder «conf/directory/» – cd conf/directory/;
  2. Create an empty file describing directory – touch pbxmate.xml;
  3. In the new file add the following content
<include>
  <!--the domain or ip (the right hand side of the @ in the addr-->
  <domain name="pbxmate.network-engineer.ru">

    <params>
      <param name="dial-string" value="{presence_id=${dialed_user}@${dialed_domain}}${sofia_contact(${dialed_user}@${dialed_domain})}"/>
    </params>

    <variables>
      <variable name="default_gateway" value="$${default_provider}"/>
    </variables>

    <groups>
      <group name="default">
        <users>
          <X-PRE-PROCESS cmd="include" data="pbxmate/*.xml"/>
        </users>
      </group>
    </groups>

  </domain>
</include>
  1. Create a directory «pbxmate», in which the files will be stored - mkdir pbxmate;
  2. Create a file describing the first SIP account with the following content
<include>
  <user id="SoliCallPBXTrunk">
    <params>
      <param name="password" value="$${default_password}"/>

    </params>
    <variables>
      <variable name="user_context" value="pbxmate"/>
    </variables>

  </user>
</include>
  1. Create a file describing the second SIP account with the following content
<include>
  <user id="SoliCallPair0">
    <params>

      <param name="password" value="$${default_password}"/>
    </params>
    <variables>
      <variable name="user_context" value="pbxmate"/>

    </variables>
  </user>
</include>
  1. Create a file describing the third SIP account with the following content
<include>
  <user id="SoliCallPair1">

    <params>
      <param name="password" value="$${default_password}"/>
    </params>
    <variables>

      <variable name="user_context" value="pbxmate"/>
    </variables>
  </user>
</include>

For all three SIP accounts the password must be the same. Afterwards you can test it.

Create a plan for routing calls «pbxmate»​

Now we need to ensure the routing of outgoing calls.

  1. Go to folder «conf/dialplan/» – cd conf/dialplan/
  2. Create a file describing the plan set – touch pbxmate.xml
  3. Add to the new file the following content
<include>
  <context name="pbxmate">

    <extension name="unloop">

      <condition field="${unroll_loops}" expression="^true$"/>
      <condition field="${sip_looped_call}" expression="^true$">
        <action application="deflect" data="${destination_number}"/>

      </condition>
    </extension>

    <extension name="default">
      <condition field="destination_number" expression="^\+(\d*)$">

        <action application="bridge" data="sofia/gateway/${default_gateway}/00$1"/>
      </condition>
    </extension>

  </context>

</include>

After configuring the dial plan you can test it.

Configuring PBXMate​

Set the following parameters in the configuration file «solicall/bin/pbxmate.conf»:

  1. SipProxyIP must contain the IP addresses on which the FreeSWITCH server listening, for example SipProxyIP = 78.46.120.13;
  2. SipProxyPort must contain the port on which FreeSWITCH server listens for the profile «pbxmate», for example SipProxyPort = 15060;
  3. SipProxyDomain must contain the DNS domain name set up to work PBXMate, for example SipProxyDomain = pbxmate.network-engineer.ru;
  4. SipUAIP must contain the IP addresses on which PBXMate listens, for example SipUAIP = 78.46.120.13;
  5. SipUAPort must contain the port on which the PBXMate listens. Given that ports 5060 and 5061 are being used by FreeSWITCH, we recommend to use the port 5062 for the PBXMate. In this case, the configuration line will look SipUAPort = 5062;
  6. Secret should contain a password assigned to users in the directory FreeSWITCH, for example Secret = 1234.

Once the configuration parameters of the PBXMate have been set, you can test PBXMate registration and test a call via the PBXMate.

Final configuration of FreeSWITCH​

To ensure the routing of outgoing calls we need to create a file describing gateway PBXMate. To do this, do the following:

  1. Navigate to the directory by default – «conf/directory/default»;
  2. Create a file describing the gateway pbxmate.network-engineer.ru – touch pbxmate.network-engineer.ru.xml;
  3. To the new file add the following content
<include>
  <user id="pbxmate.network-engineer.ru">
    <gateways>
      <gateway name="pbxmate.network-engineer.ru">

        <param name="username" value="someuser"/>
        <param name="password" value="1234"/>
        <param name="register" value="false"/>

        <param name="context" value="public"/>
      </gateway>
    </gateways>
    <params>

      <param name="password" value="$${default_provider_password}"/>
    </params>
  </user>
</include>
  1. Add a new outgoing calls direction to the file «conf/dialplan/default.xml». This direction can be added, for example, after describing the direction of «Local_Extension»
<extension name="by_pbxmate">
  <condition field="destination_number" expression="^(\+\d*)$">

    <action application="set" data="effective_caller_id_number=${outbound_caller_id_number}"/>
    <action application="set" data="effective_caller_id_name=${outbound_caller_id_name}"/>
    <action application="bridge" data="sofia/gateway/pbxmate.network-engineer.ru/$1"/>

  </condition>
</extension>

Following revisions to the plan do final testing.

Recommendations​

PBXMate does not authenticate SIP calls, therefore it is recommended to use a firewall to prohibit access to the PBXMate by any host other than FreeSWITCH.

Testing​

Testing DNS​

Testing DNS on a Windows host​

In order to verify that the correct DNS entries, we execute the command «nslookup-type = all _sip._udp.pbxmate.network-engineer.ru»

We should get the output below.

nslookup -type=all _sip._udp.pbxmate.network-engineer.ru
Server:  yota.ru
Address:  94.25.208.74

Non-authoritative answer:
_sip._udp.pbxmate.network-engineer.ru   SRV service location:
          priority       = 1
          weight         = 10
          port           = 5062
          svr hostname   = pbxmate.network-engineer.ru

network-engineer.ru     nameserver = dns1.naunet.ru
network-engineer.ru     nameserver = dns2.naunet.ru
pbxmate.network-engineer.ru     internet address = 78.46.120.13

Where the field «port» must have a value port number on which the PBXMate listens, and the field «internet address» should contain the IP address on which the PBXMate listens.

Testing DNS on a Linux host​

In order to verify that the correct DNS entries, we execute the command «nslookup-type = SRV _sip._udp.pbxmate.network-engineer.ru» We should get the output below

nslookup -type=SRV _sip._udp.pbxmate.network-engineer.ru
Server:         213.133.99.99
Address:        213.133.99.99#53

Non-authoritative answer:
_sip._udp.pbxmate.network-engineer.ru   service = 1 10 5062 pbxmate.network-engineer.ru.

Preliminary testing FreeSWITCH​

Testing the PBXMate Profile​

Restart FreeSWITCH server. On the FreeSWITCH console write «sofia status». You should see the profile «pbxmate»,

freeswitch@internal> sofia status
                     Name          Type                                       Data      State

Testing the Directory​

Note: For these testing we used SIP client X-Lite 3.0. In the FreeSWITCH console execute reloadxml.

freeswitch@internal> reloadxml
+OK [Success]

freeswitch@internal> 2010-06-20 11:13:39.246147 [INFO] mod_enum.c:808 ENUM Reloaded
2010-06-20 11:13:39.246147 [INFO] switch_time.c:915 Timezone reloaded 530 definitions

Following are the settings of the SIP client:

  1. Display Name: SoliCallPBXTrunk;
  2. User Name: SoliCallPBXTrunk;
  3. Password: 1234;
  4. Authorization user name: SoliCallPBXTrunk;
  5. Domain: pbxmate.network-engineer.ru;
  6. Set the check mark «Register with domain and receive incoming calls»;
  7. In the proxy field set the value of IP addresses on which FreeSWITCH is listening followed by a colon and the port number that has been configured for the pbxmate profile.

Sample Screen SIP client below.

Example SIP client settings for testing PBXMate registration

Figure 3. Example SIP client settings for testing PBXMate registration.

Save the configuration and verify that the SIP client registered on FreeSWITCH. After successful registration, a SIP client will look like

SIP client after successfully registration on the FreeSWITCH

Figure 4. SIP client after successfully registraion on the FreeSWITCH.

On the FreeSWITCH console you test registration by running «sofia status profile pbxmate». The «Registrations» section should contain information about the user with the number SoliCallPBXTrunk.

Testing the PBXMate​

Testing PBXMate Registration​

First restart the PBXMate. This can be done either via the solicall_cli (shown below) or the solicall_gui

[root@static bin]# ./solicall_cli
->stop
->start

After that, on the FreeSWITCH console execute «sofia status profile pbxmate» and check availability of SoliCallPBXTrunk and SoliCallPair0, sample registration records can be seen below:

Testing a call via the PBXMate​

Test a call to mobile or landline phones. This requires a SIP client X-lite settings uncheck «Register with domain and receive incoming calls» for the option «Send outbound via» select «Proxy» and enter the IP address and port on which the PBXMate listens. Since there is no registration the content of the user fields do not matter.

Example SIP client settings to perform testing of PBXMate

Figure 5. Example SIP client settings to perform testing of PBXMate.

Also do not forget that the SIP client must be configured to use the codec G711.

To make sure that FreeSWITCH receives a call from PBXMate you need to see the following text in the call log:

The call must be executed on behalf of user «SoliCallPair0@pbxmate.network-engineer.ru» and in the SDP description should specify the IP address on which the PBXmate listens. In the example above is the string «c = IN IP4 78.46.120.13″.

Final testing FreeSWITCH​

Register with the details of user default directory and execute the call to mobile or landline phone. The challenge is to be successful.
