[SR-Users] Homer Project
Hello sr-users, I would like to present a new project called "Homer". What is Homer ? Homer is a capture solution for SIP logging. How does it work? Homer has 4 components: 1. Capture Agent 2. Capture Node 4. Capture DB 3. Web GUI. The capture agent takes your local SIP traffic and sends it to the defined capture node in HEP protocol. If you are user of FreeSWITCH or Kamailio, use build-in capture agent. In other case, you can use an external generic daemon, but only for SIP/UDP. The capture node is based on kamailio, can receive SIP traffic encapsulated in IP proto 4 (IPIP) or in HEP procotol and store it into MySQL DB. To gain access to the capture DB, download a simple webinterface (PHP based). After it you are able to do search, generate PCAP file, callflow, look at the details of SIP messages etc. Homer works in our company and easy collect ~5 M packets per hour. The patches for kamailio and some other information can be found here: http://homer.googlecode.com Beta testers are welcome :-) I'll help everybody to setup/configure Homer :-) With best regards, Alexandr ___ SIP Express Router (SER) and Kamailio (OpenSER) - sr-users mailing list sr-users@lists.sip-router.org http://lists.sip-router.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sr-users
Re: [SR-Users] Homer Project
Hi Alexandr, thanks for this project. We will review the patches to kamailio and get them in the repository. Collecting 5 000 000 SIP packets/hour is quite some traffic, I would say!!! If the average size of sip packet is like 0.5 to 1KB, then the traffic stored per hour is like 2.5 to 5 GB... Do you have any screenshots of the web interface that you can share (e.g., upload to the download site of the project). It will really help to get a visual idea of the features for searching, generating call flows and pcap files ... maybe better present them in the wiki: * http://code.google.com/p/homer/wiki/HOWTO One question from me by now. Can I get the pcap for a specific call only? For example, if I filter by call-id, can be the result packed in a pcap file?

I did it quickly here: http://code.google.com/p/homer/wiki/Webinterface This webinterface works as module for Joomla CMS. One question from me by now. Can I get the pcap for a specific call only? For example, if I filter by call-id, can be the result packed in a pcap file? Ok, At this moment you can generate a pcap file only by Call-ID (clicking on Call-ID in the search result) , but I'll add possibility to generate file on any search.

Can I get the pcap for a specific call only? For example, if I filter by call-id, can be the result packed in a pcap file? Ok, At this moment you can generate a pcap file only by Call-ID (clicking on Call-ID in the search result) , but I'll add possibility to generate file on any search. Getting the pcap for one call is enough for what I was thinking (troubleshooting of broken calls), but if it is not complex, indeed having a pcap out of a search result can be useful as well.
