Hello,

Yes, it is because of the RADIUS server - OpenSIPS performs the RADIUS queries in a synchronous (blocking) mode - it blocks and wait for the reply from the RADIUS server.

So if your RADIUS server stops answering (or answering in a very slow manner), it will also drag down OpenSIPS as you may end up with all OpenSIPS processes blocked in waiting for RADIUS replies.

Hello!

 

There is  Opensips 1.6.4-2.

Today I found a problem that Opensips  hasn`t been responded to any SIP message that has been sent to it for a sometime.

 

I began to learn log file and found such messages:

“rc_ip_hostname: couldn't look up host by addr: xxxxxx

May  6 09:50:17 opensips-main /usr/local/opensips1.6.4-2/sbin/opensips[2146]: rc_send_server: no reply from RADIUS server unknown:1812

May  6 09:50:17 opensips-main /usr/local/opensips1.6.4-2/sbin/opensips[2146]: ERROR:aaa_radius:send_auth_func: radius authentication message failed with TIMEOUT”

 

These messages appeared in log file somewhere about at that time while Opensips hasn`t been responded to SIP messages.

The fact is I am using radius for prepaid scheme which I apply to some subscribers (but not for all).

 

May be it is just coincidence but my question is.  May radius problem affect normal Opensips working?

 

Thank you for any help.
