AbstractSetting up VoIP management server using a communication framework and let the users from LTE networks to register and make voice calls over IP system as well as video session.

The Project Architecture

Resources:• A PC with Ubuntu OS to install open source Asterisk server.• A 2nd PC to install the softphone Zoiper and Ekiga client installed (Ubuntu OS).• A webcam.• A headphone.• Two IP Phones (Grandstream GXV3140 & snom 360).• Three smartphones with ‘Antisip’ app installed as a VoIP client.• Smartphones also have Cisco Any Connect software installed for VPN connection.• The server pc also have a zoiper client.

Ekiga soft client use port 5060 ! • Ekiga is a softphone which we have used for video call in the Ubuntu

OS.• But Ekiga‘s default port no. is 5060.• Bindport=5061• sudo netstat -t -u -l -n --program | grep 5060 • This command will show the certain port is listening to which

application. • SIP from 5000 to 5100

rtp.confRTP configuration file (rtp.conf);; RTP Configuration;[general];; RTP start and RTP end configure start and end addresses;rtpstart=25008rtpend=25025

But our port range is

25008 - 25027

rtp.conf• First port number must be even number. (25008)• Last port number must be defined an odd number. (25025)• Asterisk will automatically use the next even number for its last port

range.• For example if “rtpend=25027” (last port range) then Asterisk will use

25028 as it’s last port number.

No video / No audio• Sometimes we had problem that call connected but no audio or no

video.• Both parties must have the same voice & video codec enabled.

• allow=alaw• allow=ulaw• allow=h263

SIP not loaded in Asterisk CLI>• No such command ‘sip show peers’.• /etc./asterisk/modules.conf • noload => chan_sip.so• load => chan_sip.so• preload => chan_sip.so
