Sip Audio Session
This script can be used for interactive audio session or for scripting alarms. The script returns appropriate shell response codes for failed or successful sessions. The script can be setup to auto answer and auto hangup after predefined number of seconds, detects SIP negative response codes, missing ACK and the lack of RTP media after a session has been established. Once the media stream is connected, the outcome of the ICE negotiation and the selected RTP candidates are displayed.
adigeo@ag-blink:~$sip-audio-session -h Usage: sip-audio-session [options] [user@domain] This script can sit idle waiting for an incoming audio session, or initiate an outgoing audio session to a SIP address. The program will close the session and quit when Ctrl+D is pressed. Options: -h, --help show this help message and exit -a NAME, --account=NAME The account name to use for any outgoing traffic. If not supplied, the default account will be used. -c CONFIG_DIRECTORY, --config-directory=CONFIG_DIRECTORY The configuration directory to use. This overrides the default location. -s, --trace-sip Dump the raw contents of incoming and outgoing SIP messages. -j, --trace-pjsip Print PJSIP logging output. -n, --trace-notifications Print all notifications (disabled by default). -S, --disable-sound Disables initializing the sound card. --auto-answer Interval after which to answer an incoming session (disabled by default). If the option is specified but the interval is not, it defaults to 0 (accept the session as soon as it starts ringing). -u AUTO_ANSWER_URIS, --auto-answer-uris=AUTO_ANSWER_URIS Optional list of SIP URIs for which auto-answer is allowed -i EXTERNAL_ID, --external-id=EXTERNAL_ID id used for call control from external application -v SPOOL_DIR, --spool-dir=SPOOL_DIR Spool dir for call control from external applications, default is /var/spool/sipclients/sessions -t, --enable-default-devices Use default audio devices --auto-hangup Interval after which to hang up an established session (disabled by default). If the option is specified but the interval is not, it defaults to 0 (hangup the session as soon as it connects). -b, --batch Run the program in batch mode: reading input from the console is disabled and the option --auto-answer is implied. This is particularly useful when running this script in a non-interactive environment. -d, --daemonize Enable running this program as a deamon.

Alarm System
sip-audio-session script can be used for end-to-end testing of a SIP service including the RTP media path. The following failures can be detected:
- Timeout
- Negative response code
- Lack of RTP media after the SIP session has been established
- Missing ACK
To setup the alarm system start periodically a caller script from a monitoring software using the following arguments:
sip-audio-session --auto-hangup user@domain
Where the user@domain has been configured as the SIP account of the listener, can be an answering machine on the PSTN network. The caller script hangs up after each call. The shell return code can be used to determine if the session setup has failed.
To receive calls and answer them automatically you can also use sip_audio_session script as follows:
sip-audio-session --auto-answer 10 --batch --auto-answer-uris alice@example.com --daemonize
Optional you can provide a list or URIs from which calls are accepted with --auto-answer-uris parameter. One can hangup a call in progress from external applications by touching a file called stop in the spool directory of the session. The spool directory is /var/spool/sipclients/sessions/call-id where call-id is the real SIP call-id of each session.
You must run the script as user root. The --daemonize option puts the client in the background and the logging goes to /var/log/syslog. The program saves its pid file to /var/run/sip_audio_session.pid.
