[OpenSIPS-Users] Restrict Simultaneous-Use

[Bogdan-Andrei Iancu]

Hi Robert,

Well, you can use the avp_radius module to load from a RADIUS server the 
number of maximum allowed calls:
    http://www.opensips.org/html/docs/modules/devel/avp_radius.html

This is the most generic way to do it.

Do you do auth via RADIUS also ?

Regards,
Bogdan

For this I implemented it with the "Simultaneous-Use" check in FreeRADIUS and it works fine, for outgoing calls initiated from my customers. Just trying to initiate a second call when one is still up, the request is rejected (Proxy authorization fails for the new call).
