[asterisk-dev] AOC in chan_sip

[Wolfgang Pichler]

Hi all,

as far as i know there is no standard way (no RFC...) to implement AOC (AOC-S, AOC-D and AOC-E) within sip. But there are already some devices out there which does support SIP AOC Messages. I am currently playing with 2 of them.

The first one are snom devices - the are supporting AOC with a special SIP INFO Messages which are getsting described here:  http://wiki.snom.com/wiki/index.php/Advice_of_charge_%28AOC%29_in_SIP

The second one are patton gateways - which are using the following SIP INFO Message to transfer the AOC info.

INFO sip:anonymous at 000.000.000.0:5060 SIP/2.0

Basicaly the patton gateway does encapsulate the ISDN binary code into a sip info message with Content Type application/QSIG

Now i do want to implement the patton AOC support within the sip channel.

The big question now is - where and how to start...

I have taken a look at the code in chan_sip.c, and i do have some questions about it.

- The iflist linked list - is this a list with all currently open sip dialogs ?
- The do_monitor thread in chan_sip does monitor all currently open dialogs (iflist) and loaded sip peers. It will check if a dialog needs to get destroyed, and so on. So this thread seems to me to be the best starting point.

What i have tried to do is the following - i have added some extra vars to the iflist struct - so that i can remember when i has sent the last SIP INFO aoc Message. In do_monitor i do check the last time against the current time - and if 1 second is over - then the next SIP INFO AOC message will get generated and send. This does already work - but the generated SIP INFO Messages does not seem to be correct.

Here is my code which does generate the SIP INFO Message:

static int sip_send_aocd_to_peer(struct sip_pvt *p)
{
        struct sip_request req;
        char buf[2048];

        reqprep(&req, p, SIP_INFO, 0, 1);
        // Insert already generated ISDN binary for testing purpose
        snprintf(buf, sizeof(buf), "91a11a0201000201213012a10d810346522ea206810100820101820100");
/*      add_header(&req, "AOC", buf);
        add_header_contentLength(&req, 0);  */

        add_header(&req, "Content-Type", "application/QSIG");
        add_header_contentLength(&req, strlen(buf));
        add_line(&req, buf);

        return send_request(p, &req, 1, p->ocseq);
}

this does generate the following sip messages:

Seems to be quit ok - but want work...

Does anyone here has already tried something like that and can give me a hint about this ?

I am doing something completly wrong here ?

Or - does anyone here already have a working aoc implementation for sip ?
