Core MI Functions v3.5
PrevNext

MI (management interface) functions which are exported by OpenSIPS core.

1. arg 🔗

Returns the full list of arguments used when OpenSIPS was started. As in UNIX, the first argument is the name of executable binary.
Arguments: none
Output: an array with multiple strings representing the arguments.

Example of usage:

    # opensips-cli -x mi arg
    [
        "./opensips",
        "-f",
        "/etc/openser/test.cfg"
    ]

2. kill 🔗

Arguments: none
Output: none

Examples of usage:

    # opensips-cli -x mi kill

3. list_blacklists 🔗

The command lists all the defined (static or learned) blacklists from OpenSIPS.
Arguments:

  • name (optional) - filter and print only rules in a specific blacklist

Output: an array with each object describing the list (name, owner, flags); the "Rules" item is an array with each object member describing the rules (blacklists) for each list (IP/mask, protocol, port, matching regexp, flags).

Examples of usage:

    # opensips-cli -x mi list_blacklists

4. check_blacklists 🔗

The command returns all the blacklists that match an proto:IP:port+pattern.
Arguments:

  • proto (optional) - protocol of the check rule - if missing, "any" protocol is used. Note that an "any" protocol check can only match an "any" protocol rule.
  • ip - the mandatory IP that is used to match the rules
  • port (optional) - the port of the check rule - if missing, 0/any port is used. Note that a 0 port will only match a 0 port rule.
  • pattern (optional) - optional pattern to check against the rules

Output: an array with the names of each blacklist that matched.

Examples of usage:

    # opensips-cli -x mi check_blacklists 127.0.0.1
    # opensips-cli -x mi check_blacklists udp 127.0.0.1 5060

5. check_blacklist 🔗

The command check whether a proto:IP:port+pattern matches any rule of a blacklist.
Arguments:

  • name = the name of the blacklist to check against
  • proto (optional) - protocol of the check rule - if missing, "any" protocol is used. Note that an "any" protocol check can only match an "any" protocol rule.

  • port (optional) - the port of the check rule - if missing, 0/any port is used. Note that a 0 port will only match a 0 port rule.
  • pattern (optional) - optional pattern to check against the rules

Output: an object containing the first rule that matched, or an error if nothing matched.

Examples of usage:

    # opensips-cli -x mi check_blacklist net_dynamic 127.0.0.1

31. raise_event 🔗

Raises an event through the Event Interface using an MI command.
Arguments:

  • event - event name
  • params (optional) - array of elements, or a string consisting of a JSON object containing key-value pairs

Output: None.
Examples of usage:

    # opensips-cli -x mi raise_event E_PIKE_BLOCKED 127.0.0.1 # array mode
    # opensips-cli -x -- mi -j raise_event event=E_PIKE_BLOCKED params='{"ip":"127.0.0.1"}' # json mode

32. subscribers_list 🔗

Lists information about the subscribers
Arguments:

  • event - event name
  • socket (optional) - external application socket

Output: If no parameter is specified, then the command returns information about all events and their subscribers. If the event is specified, only the external applications subscribed for that event are returned. If the socket is also specified, only one subscriber information is returned.
Examples of usage:

    # opensips-cli -x mi subscribers_list
{
  "Events": [{
	  "name": "E_RTPPROXY_STATUS",
	  "id": 1,
	  "subscribers": [
		...
	  ]
	},
	{
	  "name": "E_PIKE_BLOCKED",
	  "id": 2,
	  "subscribers": [
		...
	  ]
	}
  ]
}

    # opensips-cli -x mi subscribers_list E_RTPPROXY_STATUS
{
  "Event": {
	"name": "E_RTPPROXY_STATUS",
	"id": 1,
	"subscribers": [{
		  "socket": "unix:/tmp/event.sock",
		  "expire": "never",
		},
		{
		  "socket": "udp:127.0.0.1:8888",
		  "expire": 1100,
		  "ttl": 1046
		}
	]
  } 
}

    # opensips-cli -x mi subscribers_list E_RTPPROXY_STATUS unix:/tmp/event.sock
{
  "Event": {
	"name": "E_RTPPROXY_STATUS",
	"id": 1,
	"Subscriber": {
	  "socket": "unix:/tmp/event.sock",
	  "expire": "never"
	}
  } 
}

33. mem_pkg_dump 🔗

Triggers a pkg memory dump for a given process. The memory dump will written to OpenSIPS's log (syslog or stderr) using the 'memdump' logging level. The global 'memdump' log level may be overwritten by a custom value provided as argument to this command.
Arguments:

  • pid - the PID of the process to perform the pkg dump
  • log_level (optional) - a log level to be used for this dump

Output: None.
Examples of usage:

    # opensips-cli -x mi mem_pkg_dump 11854 -1

The processes without IPC support (like timer and per-module processes) will not be able to generate a memory dump.

34. mem_shm_dump 🔗

Triggers a shm memory dump. The memory dump will written to OpenSIPS's log (syslog or stderr) using the 'memdump' logging level. The global 'memdump' log level may be overwritten by a custom value provided as argument to this command.
Arguments:

  • log_level (optional) - a log level to be used for this dump

Output: None.
Examples of usage:

    # opensips-cli -x mi mem_shm_dump -1

35. shm_check 🔗

Only available with QM_MALLOC + DBG_MALLOC. Fully scans the shared memory pool in order to locate any inconsistencies. If any sign of memory corruption is detected, OpenSIPS will immediately abort.
Arguments: None
Output: current number of fragments.
Example of usage:

    # opensips-cli -x mi shm_check

36. xlog_level [level] 🔗

Get or set the global xlogging level in OpenSIPS processes. If no argument is passed to the xlog_level command, it will print the current xlog_level. If a logging level is given, it will be globally set for all OpenSIPS processes.
Arguments:

  • level (optional)

Example of usage:

    # opensips-cli -x mi xlog_level -2
