Chapter 1. Admin Guide

1.1. Overview

This module implements an User Agent capable of establishing messaging sessions using the MSRP(RFC 4976) protocol.

Through the exported script and MI functions, the module allows OpenSIPS to set up MSRP sessions via SIP and exchange messages as an MSRP endpoint.

The module makes use of the proto_msrp module for the MSRP protocol stack and the b2b_entities module for the SIP UAC/UAS functionalities.

1.2. Dependencies

1.2.1. OpenSIPS Modules

The following modules must be loaded before this module:

  • proto_msrp

  • b2b_entities

1.2.2. External Libraries or Applications

The following libraries or applications must be installed before running OpenSIPS with this module loaded:

  • None.

1.3. Exported Parameters

1.3.1. hash_size (int)

The size of the hash table that stores the MSRP session information. It is the 2 logarithmic value of the real size.

Default value is 10 (1024 records).

Example 1.1. Set hash_size parameter

...
modparam("msrp_ua", "hash_size", 16)
...
		

1.3.2. cleanup_interval (int)

The interval between full iterations of the sessions table in order to clean up expired MSRP sessions.

Default value is 60.

Example 1.2. Set cleanup_interval parameter

...
modparam("msrp_ua", "cleanup_interval", 30)
...
		

1.3.3. max_duration (integer)

The maximum duration of a call. If set to 0, there will be no limitation.

The default value is 12 * 3600 seconds (12 hours).

Example 1.3. max_duration parameter example

...
modparam("msrp_ua", "max_duration", 7200)
...

1.3.4. my_uri (string)

The MSRP URI of the OpenSIPS endpoint. This URI will be advertised in the SDP offer provided to peers when setting up a session and should match one of the MSRP listeners defined in the script.

The session-id part of the URI should be ommited.

If the port is not set explicitly, the default value of 2855 wil be assumed

Example 1.4. my_uri parameter usage

...
modparam("msrp_ua", "my_uri", "msrp://opensips.org:2855;tcp")
...

1.3.5. advertised_contact (string)

Contact to be used in the generated SIP requests. For sessions answered by OpenSIPS, if it is not set, it is constructed dynamically from the socket where the initiating request was received.

This parameter is mandatory when using the msrp_ua_start_session MI function.

Example 1.5. advertised_contact parameter usage

...
modparam("msrp_ua", "advertised_contact", "sip:oss@opensips.org")
...

1.3.6. relay_uri (string)

URI of an MSRP relay to use for both accepted and initiated sessions.

Credentials for the MSRP client are provided via the uac_auth module by setting the credential module parameter.

If not set, no relay will be used.

Example 1.6. relay_uri parameter usage

...
modparam("msrp_ua", "relay_uri", "msrp://opensips.org:2856;tcp")
...

1.4. Exported Functions

1.4.1.  msrp_ua_answer(content_types)

This functions answers an initial INVITE offering a new MSRP messaging session. After this function is used to initialize the session, the call will be completely handled by the B2B engine.

Parameters:

  • content_types (string) - content types adevertised in the accept-types SDP attribute. At least one of the content types in this list must match the types offered by the peer in its SDP offer.

This function can be used only from a request route.

Example 1.7. msrp_ua_answer() usage

...
if (!has_totag() && is_method("INVITE")) {
	msrp_ua_answer("text/plain");
	exit;
}
...

1.5. Exported MI Functions

1.5.1.  msrp_ua_send_message

Sends a new MSRP message to the peer.

Name: msrp_ua_send_message

Parameters

  • session_id (string) - the MSRP session identifier ("session-id" part of the MSRP URI).

  • mime (string, optional) - MIME content type of this message. If missing, an empty message will be sent.

  • body (string, optional) - actual message body. If missing, an empty message will be sent.

MI FIFO Command Format:

opensips-cli -x mi msrp_ua_send_message \
	5addd9e7b74fa44fbace68a4fc562293 \
	text/plain \
	Hello
		

1.5.2.  msrp_ua_start_session

Starts a MSRP session.

The advertised_contact is mandatory if this function is used.

Name: msrp_ua_start_session

Parameters

  • content_types (string) - content types adevertised in the accept-types SDP attribute.

  • from_uri (string) - From URI to be used in the INVITE.

  • to_uri (string) - To URI to be used in the INVITE.

  • ruri (string) - Request URI and destination of the INVITE.

MI FIFO Command Format:

opensips-cli -x mi msrp_ua_start_session \
	text/plain sip:oss@opensips.org \
	sip:alice@opensips.org sip:alice@opensips.org
		

1.5.3.  msrp_ua_list_sessions

Lists information about ongoing MSRP sessions.

Name: msrp_ua_list_sessions

Parameters

  • None.

MI FIFO Command Format:

opensips-cli -x mi msrp_ua_list_sessions
		

1.5.4.  msrp_ua_end_session

Terminate an ongoing MSRP session.

Name: msrp_ua_end_session

Parameters

  • session_id (string) - the MSRP session identifier ("session-id" part of the MSRP URI).

MI FIFO Command Format:

opensips-cli -x mi msrp_ua_end_session \
	5addd9e7b74fa44fbace68a4fc562293
		

1.6. Exported Events

  • ruri - The SIP Request URI of the answered INVITE.

  • session_id - The MSRP session identifier ("session-id" part of the MSRP URI).

  • content_types - The content types offered by the peer in the accept-types SDP attribute.

1.6.2.  E_MSRP_SESSION_END

This event is triggered when an ongoing MSRP session is terminted (session expires or BYE is received; terminating a session via the msrp_ua_end_session MI function is not included).

Parameters:

  • session_id - The MSRP session identifier ("session-id" part of the MSRP URI).

1.6.3.  E_MSRP_MSG_RECEIVED

This event is triggered when receiving a new, non-empty MSRP message from the peer.
