SIP Router (sip-router)

VI. More Information
SIP Router (sip-router) is an industrial-strength, free VoIP server based
on the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP RFC3261).
It is engineered to power IP telephony and presence infrastructures up to large
scale. The server keeps track of users, sets up VoIP sessions, relays instant
messages and creates space for new plug-in applications. Its proven interoperability
guarantees seamless integration with components from other vendors, eliminating the
risk of a single-vendor trap. It has successfully participated in various
interoperability tests in which it worked with the products
of other leading SIP vendors.
The SIP Router enables a flexible plug-in model for new applications: Third parties
can easily link their plug-ins with the server code and provide thereby advanced and
customized services.
Its performance and robustness allows it to serve millions of users and accommodate needs
of very large operators. With a $3000 dual-CPU, the SIP Express Router is able to power
IP telephony services in an area as large as the Bay Area during peak hours.
The SIP Router is extremely configurable to allow the creation of various routing and
admission policies as well as setting up new and customized services. Its configurability
allows it to serve many roles: network security barrier, presence server, application server,
or PSTN gateway guard (Session Border Controller) for example.
II. Feature List
================
See http://www.sip-router.org/ for an updated feature list.
Note that as features easily are added as modules, changes can occur quickly.
Most of SIP-router's features are implemented as plug-in modules. See
our web site for a current list.
III. Getting started
====================
The INSTALL document will guide you through the installation of sip-router.
SIP-router is composed of a core and additional modules. For each module
there is a README with documentation on how to configure and use the
module. These are available in each modules source code directory as well
as on the sip-router.org web site.
We recommend that you continue with reading README-MODULES and then the
document named INSTALL.
IV. About sip-router.org
========================
The SIP Router project was started during the fall of 2008 by developers from
the OpenSER project, recently renamed to Kamailio.org and SIP Express Router (SER)
from iptel.org. SIP Router is the result of a merge of the code base and years
of experience from both developer teams.
See http://www.sip-router.org/ for the story of SER, OpenSER/Kamailio and sip-router.org.
