Hello,

just to conclude this thread, for archiving and future searches, the upcoming 
3.2.0 (planned for tomorrow), exports via snmpstats the counter with all 
processed dialogs. Therefore, making the difference against failed dialogs 
counter will result in the total number of answered calls.

Cheers,
Daniel

ok :-) . late reply -- I was several days off.

Will the patch be added to release 3.1.1 release?

. It is very unlikely to backport new features in stable branches, however, 
when the patch will be done for devel branch should work also on 3.1.x since 
there were no other changes in devel vs 3.1.

Cheers,

Thanks for the answer.

Maybe I have some older versions of the OPENSER-MIB and the other related MIB's 
since I could not find the counter you pointed at. I'm using a MIB browser for 
reading the MIB's.
Is the suggested counter "expired dialogs" added in a specific release of 
Kamailio? Which? We use Kamailio 3.0.2.
I used Kamailio and recommend using it sine it has the latest commits for 
stability.
 ... ^^^ ... obviously this was incomplete phrase, it meant to be: "I used 
Kamailio 3.1.2 and recommend using it since it has the latest commits for 
stability".

I can add also that I got more familiar in configuring it with snmpstats on 
debian/ubuntu, so it would be easier for me to give hints as well as add new 
features since it is the same as devel version.

Cheers,
Daniel


However, what I wrote before is pretty much not related to the version. There 
is a counter that tracks the processed dialogs, but seems it is not exported by 
default through snmpstats module. The statistics counter is named 
"processed_dialogs", implemented by dialog module.

You can dump all internal statistics through kamctl or via xmlrpc command, but 
probably to export it through snmpstats you may need to extend the mibs and the 
code of the module.

I just grepped the sources of snmpstats module to see what dialog statistics it 
is exporting:

$ grep -n _dialogs modules_k/snmpstats/* | grep get_statistic
modules_k/snmpstats/alarm_checks.c:83:    num_dialogs = 
get_statistic("active_dialogs");
modules_k/snmpstats/snmpObjects.c:404:    int result = 
get_statistic("active_dialogs");
modules_k/snmpstats/snmpObjects.c:424:        get_statistic("active_dialogs") -
modules_k/snmpstats/snmpObjects.c:425:        get_statistic("early_dialogs");
modules_k/snmpstats/snmpObjects.c:443:    int result = 
get_statistic("early_dialogs");
modules_k/snmpstats/snmpObjects.c:459:    int result = 
get_statistic("failed_dialogs");
modules_k/snmpstats/snmpObjects.c:508:    int num_dialogs = 
get_statistic("active_dialogs");

Perhaps when the snmpstats was developed the dialog module didn't export the 
statistics counter of "processed_dialogs" and then it was not updated.

Now, what I tried to say is that if the "processed_dialogs" counter is not 
available through snmpstats (and it is not now after grepping the sources) you 
can get its value from another application through "kamctl get_statistics all" 
or XMLRPC command for all of the existing kamailio releases. Upcoming one we 
will look to implement the export through snmpstats as well. If you have time 
to do it and send us a patch, we will gladly commit it to source tree in our 
GIT repository.

Cheers,
Daniel

Do you have the MIB name for the "expired dialogs" counter. I will look for 
that in my version of OPENSER MIBS.
Important, do you have a link to where MIB files can be downloaded for Kamailio 
3.0.2?

Below follows an excerp from one of the MIB's. Is it old, I don't know?

Hi,

In the Kamailio OPENSER-MIB there is the counter 
"openserTotalNumFailedDialogSetups". This is a Counter32.
The description is:
        "The total number of calls that failed with an error. The following 
codes define a failed call:"

Question:

 *   I'm looking for the corresponding counter to 
"openserTotalNumFailedDialogSetups" who counts successful Dialog setups of 
Counter32 type. Does it exist?
 *   If not, does it exist a work around?
 *   Where in the code can the new suggested counter be added?
 *   Something else????

the dialog module counts the number of processed dialogs, see:
http://kamailio.org/docs/modules/stable/modules_k/dialog.html#id2966360

There is no counter currently inside dialog module exporting exactly the number 
of successfully setup dialogs, it should not be hard to do it, though. Using 
the above and the number of failed and expired dialogs, you can actually get 
the number of successful dialogs.

Dialog module being the one that tracks SIP dialogs, therefore being able to 
count them, now I don't know if snmpstats module exports all the counters from 
dialog module. I setup snmpstats just few weeks ago and works perfect on 
Ubuntu/Debian servers, but I had no need to check dialog module counters.

Note that you can get the list of all internal statistics via kamctl:
- kamctl fifo get_statistics all

Or via XMLRPC if you need them remotely in another application.

Another option is to define your statistics with statistics module. Knowing 
that in SIP a successful call dialog means 200ok reply to an INVITE 
transaction, you can count it in the onreply_route[abc] that you arm for 
relayed transactions with t_on_reply("abc").

Hope these help you,
Daniel


Suggestion for the new counter is a name like: 
"openserTotalNumSucceededDialogSetups". It has a counter32. Description: "The 
total number of calls that succeeded"

I know that there are the counters openserCurNumDialogs, 
openserCurNumDialogsInProgress and openserCurNumDialogsInSetup but these are of 
Gauge type who only reflects the current situation. These Gauge counters can't 
be used together with a Counter32 counter. That don't mix. The calculation done 
for the counter "openserCurNumDialogsInProgress" should be used where every new 
dialog setup is added to the new suggested counter. A counter of 32 should 
cover a great deal of connections. These counters are usually read, if used, 
every 15 minutes or 1 hour.


Rationale:
The reason for the new counter is that a calculation between succeeded and 
failed dialog setups can be done and be used for SLA agreements. Without this, 
its hard to make any customer versus provider agreements.

PS. Ask if anything is unclear and I need an answer rapidly.
