Re: [OpenSIPS-Users] Diameter
this looks a very good starting point, this module is designed to work with SER. I'll try to check it. Thank you.

Re: [OpenSIPS-Users] Diameter
Actually, openblox project has two versions, one is proposed as a commercial and the other as an open license version. It's implemented in JAVA and they mentioned in their web site that there's a C++ implementation but I couldn't reach it through their web site. you can see the product in the following link: http://traffixsystems.com/site/content/t2.asp?Sid=49&Pid=241 Regards.

Re: [OpenSIPS-Users] Diameter
Thank you for response, I see in the details of that module (auth_diameter) this diagram: ++ SIP INVITE +=+ DIAMETER +--+ +--+ || no Auth hdr #/# AA-Request| | | | ||-1--->#/#---2--->| |---2-->| | |UAC | #UAS//#|DClnt | |DSrv | ||<-4---#(SER)#<--3|(DISC)|<--3---|(DISC)| || 401 #/# DIAMETER | | | | ++ Unauthorized +=+ AA-Answer +--+ +--+ We notice in this architecture that we have two diameter blocks, the first one plays the role of diameter client(DClnt) and the second one plays the role of diameter server(DSrv). But in Radius modules the OpenSIPS interacts with Radius server directly, so maybe I have a misunderstood in this regard but I'd like to know whether it's possible to make OpenSIPS interact with Diameter server directly or this is not possible due to the nature of diameter protocol. Opendiameter is written in C++ so I think it's not possible to integrate it directly in OpenSIPS as a module, so we have to design something similar to the above diagram, isn't it? What would be the type of communication between OpenSIPS & Diameter Client, is it diameter based also? The implementation of Openblox looks promising as well, so do you think it would be a good candidate for building the module? Regards.

[OpenSIPS-Users] Diameter
Hello lists, I'm interested in AAA functions according to Diameter which is newer than Radius. There's a module in OpenSIPS which is called "AUTH_DIAMETER Module" and it's mentioned that this module is obsolete. So I'd like your recommendations about this matter, should I work from the scratch to develop something that does this functionalities or is it possible to integrate other open source software with OpenSIPS. Thank you very much. ___ Users mailing list Users@lists.opensips.org http://lists.opensips.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/users
[OpenSIPS-Users] Diameter interface for OpenSIPS
Hi, I want to communicate between OpenSIPS and HSS through diameter interface. Any suggestions, on how can I have a diameter module in OpenSIPS.. so that I can communicate between two diameter peers?
