[SR-Users] The Subscriber table VS the Location table ?!

2014-12-19 Thread Mahmoud Ramadan Ali
Hi Dears,
I'm a little bit confused about the difference between the Subscriber
table and the Location table.I read that the Location table is used for
persistent user registration BUT i did NOT configured the Location table
and can get persistent user registration with the Subscriber table !
So can anyone explain the difference please ?
Best Regards and Thanks in Advance.

The users in subscriber table are the actual users who are allowed to
register to your SIP service. This is where kamailio gets the
authentication information, e.g. username and password etc.

The location table is where kamailio stores currently registered i.e.
online users. Obviously the records in location table are subset of
subscriber table. You do not need to maintain the location table in normal
cases as kamailio takes care of that itself.

Thank you.

The subscriber table is for AUTHENTICATION. It's not for registrations 
specifically, as you can authenticate anything but CANCEL.

The location table is by default kept in memory. When you reboot Kamailio it's 
gone. If you add a database we can store registrations there in many different 
ways - as a backup of in-memory data, instead of in-memory or in sync with 
in-memory.

It's two very different tables.
