Chapter 1. Admin Guide

1.1. Overview

   The OSP module enables OpenSIPS to support secure,
   multi-lateral peering using the OSP standard defined by ETSI
   (TS 101 321 V4.1.1). This module will enable your OpenSIPS to:
     * Send a peering authorization request to a peering server.
     * Validate a digitally signed peering authorization token
       received in a SIP INVITE message.
     * Report usage information to a peering server.

1.2. Dependencies

   The OSP module depends on the following modules which must be
   loaded before the OSP module.
     * auth -- Authentication Framework module
     * avpops -- AVP operation module
     * maxfwd -- Max-Forward processor module
     * mi_fifo -- FIFO support for Management Interface
     * options -- OPTIONS server replier module
     * registrar -- SIP Registrar implementation module
     * rr -- Record-Route and Route module
     * signaling -- SIP signaling module
     * sipmsgops -- SIP operations module
     * sl -- Stateless replier module
     * tm -- Transaction (stateful) module
     * uac -- UAC functionalies (FROM mangling and UAC auth)
     * uac_auth -- UAC Authentication functionality
     * usrloc -- User location implementation module
     * OSP Toolkit -- The OSP Toolkit, available from
       http://sourceforge.net/projects/osp-toolkit, must be built
       before building OpenSIPS with the OSP module. For
       instructions on building OpenSIPS with the OSP Toolkit, see
       http://www.http://transnexus.com/wp-content/uploads/OSP-Rou
       ting-and-CDR-Collection-Server-with-OpenSIPS-1.7.2.pdf. For
       OpenSIPS 1.11.5, OSP Toolkit 4.5.0 or later versions should
       be used.

1.3. Exported Parameters

1.3.1. work_mode

   The work_mode (integer) parameter instructs the OSP module what
   mode it should work in. If this value is set to 0, the OSP
   module wokes in direct mode. If this value is set to 1, the OSP
   module works in indirect mode. The default value is 0.

   Example 1.1. Instructing the module to work in direct mode
modparam("osp","work_mode",0)

1.3.2. service_type

   The service_type (integer) parameter instructs the OSP module
   what services it should provide. If this value is set to 0, the
   OSP module provides normal voice service. If this value is set
   to 1, the OSP module provides ported number query service. If
   this value is set to 2, the OSP module provides CNAM query
   service. The default value is 0.

   Example 1.2. Instructing the module to provide normal voice
   service
modparam("osp","service_type",0)

1.3.3. sp1_uri, sp2_uri, ..., sp16_uri

   These sp_uri (string) parameters define peering servers to be
   used for requesting peering authorization and routing
   information. At least one peering server must be configured.
   Others are required only if there are more than one peering
   servers. Each peering server address takes the form of a
   standard URL, and consists of up to four components:
     * An optional indication of the protocol to be used for
       communicating with the peering server. Both HTTP and HTTP
       secured with SSL/TLS are supported and are indicated by
       "http://" and "https://" respectively. If the protocol is
       not explicitly indicated, the OpenSIPS defaults to HTTP
       secured with SSL.
     * The Internet domain name for the peering server. An IP
       address may also be used, provided it is enclosed in square
       brackets such as [172.16.1.1].
     * An optional TCP port number for communicating with the
       peering server. If the port number is omitted, the OpenSIPS
       defaults to port 5045 (for HTTP) or port 1443 (for HTTP
       secured with SSL).
       The uniform resource identifier for requests to the peering
       server. This component is not optional and must be
       included.

   Example 1.3. Setting the OSP servers
modparam("osp","sp1_uri","http://osptestserver.transnexus.com:5045/osp"
)
modparam("osp","sp2_uri","https://[1.2.3.4]:1443/osp")

1.3.4. sp1_weight, sp2_weight, ..., sp16_weight

   These sp_weight (integer) parameters are used for load
   balancing peering requests to peering servers. These parameters
   are most effective when configured as factors of 1000. For
   example, if sp1_uri should manage twice the traffic load of
   sp2_uri, then set sp1_weight to 2000 and sp2_weight to 1000.
   Shared load balancing between peering servers is recommended.
   However, peering servers can be configured as primary and
   backup by assigning a sp_weight of 0 to the primary server and
   a non-zero sp_weight to the back-up server. The default values
   for sp1_weight and sp2_weight are 1000.

   Example 1.4. Setting the OSP server weights
modparam("osp","sp1_weight",1000)

1.3.5. device_ip

   The device_ip (string) is a recommended parameter that
   explicitly defines the IP address of OpenSIPS in a peering
   request message (as SourceAlternate type=transport). The
   dotted-decimal IP address must be in brackets as shown in the
   example below.

   Example 1.5. Setting the device IP address
modparam("osp","device_ip","[127.0.0.1]:5060")

1.3.6. use_security_features

   The use_security_features (integer) parameter instructs the OSP
   module how to use the OSP security features. If this value is
   set to 1, the OSP module uses the OSP security features. If
   this value is set to 0, the OSP module will not use the OSP
   security features. The default value is 0.

   Example 1.6. Instructing the module not to use OSP security
   features
modparam("osp","use_security_features",0)

1.3.7. token_format

   When OpenSIPS receives a SIP INVITE with a peering token, the
   OSP module will validate the token to determine whether or not
   the call has been authorized by a peering server. Peering
   tokens may, or may not, be digitally signed. The token_format
   (integer) parameter defines if OpenSIPS will validate signed or
   unsigned tokens or both. The values for token format are
   defined below. The default value is 2.

   If use_security_features parameter is set to 0, signed tokens
   cannot be validated.

   0 - Validate only signed tokens. Calls with valid signed tokens
   are allowed.

   1 - Validate only unsigned tokens. Calls with valid unsigned
   tokens are allowed.

   2 - Validate both signed and unsigned tokens are allowed. Calls
   with valid tokens are allowed.

   Example 1.7. Setting the token format
modparam("osp","token_format",2)

1.3.8. private_key, local_certificate, ca_certificates

   These parameters identify files are used for validating peering
   authorization tokens and establishing a secure channel between
   OpenSIPS and a peering server using SSL. The files are
   generated using the 'Enroll' utility from the OSP Toolkit. By
   default, the proxy will look for pkey.pem, localcert.pem, and
   cacart_0.pem in the default configuration directory. The
   default config directory is set at compile time using CFG_DIR
   and defaults to /usr/local/etc/opensips/. The files may be
   copied to the expected file location or the parameters below
   may be changed.

   If use_security_features parameter is set to 0, these
   parameters will be ignored.

   Example 1.8. Set authorization files

   If the default CFG_DIR value was used at compile time, the
   files will be loaded from:
modparam("osp","private_key","/usr/local/etc/opensips/pkey.pem")
modparam("osp","local_certificate","/usr/local/etc/opensips/localcert.p
em")
modparam("osp","ca_certificates","/usr/local/etc/opensips/cacert.pem")

1.3.9. enable_crypto_hardware_support

   The enable_crypto_hardware_support (integer) parameter is used
   to set the cryptographic hardware acceleration engine in the
   openssl library. The default value is 0 (no crypto hardware is
   present). If crypto hardware is used, the value should be set
   to 1.

   Example 1.9. Setting the hardware support
modparam("osp","enable_crypto_hardware_support",0)

1.3.10. ssl_lifetime

   The ssl_lifetime (integer) parameter defines the lifetime, in
   seconds, of a single SSL session key. Once this time limit is
   exceeded, the OSP module will negotiate a new session key.
   Communication exchanges in progress will not be interrupted
   when this time limit expires. This is an optional field with
   default value is 200 seconds.

   Example 1.10. Setting the ssl lifetime
modparam("osp","ssl_lifetime",200)

1.3.11. persistence

   The persistence (integer) parameter defines the time, in
   seconds, that an HTTP connection should be maintained after the
   completion of a communication exchange. The OSP module will
   maintain the connection for this time period in anticipation of
   future communication exchanges to the same peering server.

   Example 1.11. Setting the persistence
modparam("osp","persistence",1000)

1.3.12. retry_delay

   The retry_delay (integer) parameter defines the time, in
   seconds, between retrying connection attempts to an OSP peering
   server. After exhausting all peering servers the OSP module
   will delay for this amount of time before resuming connection
   attempts. This is an optional field with default value is 1
   second.

   Example 1.12. Setting the retry delay
modparam("osp","retry_delay",1)

1.3.13. retry_limit

   The retry_limit (integer) parameter defines the maximum number
   of retries for connection attempts to a peering server. If no
   connection is established after this many retry attempts to all
   peering servers, the OSP module will cease connection attempts
   and return appropriate error codes. This number does not count
   the initial connection attempt, so that a retry_limit of 1 will
   result in a total of two connection attempts to every peering
   server. The default value is 2.

   Example 1.13. Setting the retry limit
modparam("osp","retry_limit",2)

1.3.14. timeout

   The timeout (integer) parameter defines the maximum time in
   milliseconds, to wait for a response from a peering server. If
   no response is received within this time, the current
   connection is aborted and the OSP module attempts to contact
   the next peering server. The default value is 10 seconds.

   Example 1.14. Setting the timeout
modparam("osp","timeout",10)

1.3.15. support_nonsip_protocol

   The support_nonsip_protocol (integer) parameter is used to tell
   the OSP module if non-SIP signaling protocol destination
   devices are supported. The default value is 0.

   Example 1.15. Setting support non-SIP destination devices
modparam("osp","support_nonsip_protocol",0)

1.3.16. max_destinations

   The max_destinations (integer) parameter defines the maximum
   number of destinations that OpenSIPS requests the peering
   server to return in a peering response. The OSP module supports
   up to 12 destinations. The default value is 12.

   Example 1.16. Setting the number of destination
modparam("osp","max_destinations",12)

1.3.17. report_networkid

   The report_networkid (integer) parameter is used to tell the
   OSP module if to report network ID in completed call CDRs. If
   it is set to 0, ths OSP module does not report any network ID.
   If it is set to 1, the OSP module reports source network ID. If
   it is set to 2, the OSP module reports destination network ID.
   If it is set to 3, the OSP module report both source and
   destination network IDs. The default value is 3.

   Example 1.17. Setting report network ID flag
modparam("osp","report_networkid",3)

1.3.18. validate_call_id

   The validate_call_id (integer) parameter instructs the OSP
   module to validate call id in the peering token. If this value
   is set to 1, the OSP module validates that the call id in the
   SIP INVITE message matches the call id in the peering token. If
   they do not match the INVITE is rejected. If this value is set
   to 0, the OSP module will not validate the call id in the
   peering token. The default value is 1.

   Example 1.18. Instructing the module to validate call id
modparam("osp","validate_call_id",1)

1.3.19. use_number_portability

   The use_number_portability (integer) parameter instructs the
   OSP module how to use the number portability parameters in the
   Request URI of the SIP INVITE message. If this value is set to
   1, the OSP module uses the number portability parameters in the
   Request URI when these parameters exist. If this value is set
   to 0, the OSP module will not use the number portability
   parameters. The default value is 1.

   Example 1.19. Instructing the module to use number portability
   parameters in Request URI
modparam("osp","use_number_portablity",1)

1.3.20. append_userphone

   The append_userphone (integer) parameter instructs the OSP
   module if to append "user=phone" parameter in URI. If this
   value is set to 0, the OSP module does not append "user=phone"
   parameter. If this value is set to 1, the OSP module will
   append "user=phone" parameter. The default value is 0

   Example 1.20. Append user=phone parameter
modparam("osp","append_userphone",0)

1.3.21. networkid_location

   The networkid_location (integer) parameter instructs the OSP
   module where the destination network ID should be appended. The
   default value is 2

   0 - network ID is not appended.

   1 - network ID is appended as userinfo parameter.

   2 - network ID is appended as URI parameter.

   Example 1.21. Append networkid location
modparam("osp","networkid_location",2)

1.3.22. networkid_parameter

   The networkid_parameter (string) parameter instructs the OSP
   module to use which parameter name in outbound destination URIs
   to append destination network ID. The default value is
   "networkid"

   Example 1.22. Networkid parameter name
modparam("osp","networkid_param","networkid")

1.3.23. parameterstring_location

   The parameterstring_location (integer) parameter instructs the
   OSP module where the parameter string should be appended. The
   default value is 0

   0 - parameter string is not appended.

   1 - parameter string is appended as userinfo parameter.

   2 - parameter string is appended as URI parameter.

   Example 1.23. Append parameter string location
modparam("osp","parameterstring_location",0)

1.3.24. parameterstring_value

   The parameterstring_value (string) parameter instructs the OSP
   module to append the parameter string in outbound URIs. The
   default value is ""

   Example 1.24. Parameter string value
modparam("osp","parameterstring_value","")

1.3.25. source_device_avp

   The source_device_avp (string) parameter instructs the OSP
   module to use the defined AVP to pass the source device IP
   value in the indirect work mode. The default value is
   "$avp(_osp_source_device_)". Then the source device IP can be
   set by "$avp(_osp_source_device_) = pseudo-variables". All
   pseudo variables are described in
   http://www.opensips.org/Resources/DocsCoreVar.

   Example 1.25. Setting the source device IP AVP
modparam("osp","source_device_avp","$avp(srcdev)")

1.3.26. source_networkid_avp

   The source_networkid_avp (string) parameter instructs the OSP
   module to use the defined AVP to pass the source network ID
   value. The default value is "$avp(_osp_source_networkid_)".
   Then the source network ID can be set by
   "$avp(_osp_source_networkid_) = pseudo-variables". All pseudo
   variables are described in
   http://www.opensips.org/Resources/DocsCoreVar.

   Example 1.26. Setting the source network ID AVP
modparam("osp","source_networkid_avp","$avp(snid)")

1.3.27. custom_info_avp

1.4. Exported Functions

1.4.1. checkospheader()

   This function checks for the existence of the OSP-Auth-Token
   header field.

   This function can be used from REQUEST_ROUTE.

   Example 1.30. checkospheader usage
...
if (checkospheader()) {
  log(1,"OSP header field found.\n");
} else {
  log(1,"no OSP header field present\n");
};
...

1.4.2. validateospheader()

   This function validates an OSP-Token specified in the
   OSP-Auth-Tokenheader field of the SIP message. If a peering
   token is present, it will be validated locally. If no OSP
   header is found or the header token is invalid or expired, -1
   is returned; on successful validation 1 is returned.

   This function can be used from REQUEST_ROUTE.

   Example 1.31. validateospheader usage
...
if (validateospheader()) {
  log(1,"valid OSP header found\n");
} else {
  log(1,"OSP header not found, invalid or expired\n");
};
...

1.4.3. getlocaladdress()

   This function gets the receiving IP address of SIP response and
   stores it as proxy egress address.

   This function can be used from ONREPLY_ROUTE.

   Example 1.32. getlocaladress usage
...
if (getlocaladdress()) {
  log(1,"Obtain proxy local egress address\n");
} else {
  log(1,"Failed to get proxy local egress address\n");
};
...

1.4.4. requestosprouting()

   This function launches a query to the peering server requesting
   the IP address of one or more destination peers serving the
   called party. If destination peers are available, the peering
   server will return the IP address and a peering authorization
   token for each destination peer. The OSP-Auth-Token Header
   field is inserted into the SIP message and the SIP uri is
   rewritten to the IP address of destination peer provided by the
   peering server.

   The address of the called party must be a valid E164 number,
   otherwise this function returns -1. If the transaction was
   accepted by the peering server, the uri is being rewritten and
   1 returned, on errors (peering servers are not available,
   authentication failed or there is no route to destination or
   the route is blocked) -1 is returned.

   This function can be used from REQUEST_ROUTE.

   Example 1.33. requestosprouting usage
...
if (requestosprouting()) {
  log(1,"successfully queried OSP server, now relaying call\n");
} else {
  log(1,"Authorization request was rejected from OSP server\n");
};
...

1.4.5. checkosproute()

   This function is used to check if there is any route for the
   call.

   This function can be used from REQUEST_ROUTE.

   Example 1.34. checkosproute usage
...
if (checkosproute()) {
  log(1,"There is at least one route for the call\n");
} else {
  log(1,"There is not any route for the call\n");
};
...

1.4.6. prepareosproute()

   This function tries to prepare the INVITE to be forwarded using
   the destination in the list returned by the peering server. If
   the calling number is translated, a RPID value for the RPID AVP
   will be set. If the route could not be prepared, the function
   returns 'FALSE' back to the script, which can then decide how
   to handle the failure. Note, if checkosproute has been called
   and returns 'TRUE' before calling prepareosproute,
   prepareosproute should not return 'FALSE' because checkosproute
   has confirmed that there is at least one route.

   This function can be used from BRANCH_ROUTE.

   Example 1.35. prepareosproute usage
...
if (prepareosproute()) {
  log(1,"successfully prepared the route, now relaying call\n");
} else {
  log(1,"could not prepare the route, there is not route\n");
};
...

1.4.7. prepareospresponse()

   This function tries to prepare all the routes in the list
   returned by the peering server into SIP 300 Redirect or SIP 380
   Alternative Service message. The message is then replied to the
   source. If unsuccessful in preparing the routes a SIP 500 is
   sent back and a trace message is logged.

   This function can be used from REQUEST_ROUTE.

   Example 1.36. prepareospresponse usage
...
if (prepareospresponse()) {
  log(1,"Response is prepared.\n");
} else {
  log(1,"Could not prepare the response.\n");
};
...

1.4.8. prepareallosproutes()

   This function tries to prepare all the routes in the list
   returned by the peering server. The message is then forked off
   to the destinations. If unsuccessful in preparing the routes a
   SIP 500 is sent back and a trace message is logged.

   This function can be used from REQUEST_ROUTE.

   Example 1.37. prepareallosproutes usage
...
if (prepareallosproutes()) {
  log(1,"Routes are prepared, now forking the call\n");
} else {
  log(1,"Could not prepare the routes. No destination available\n");
};
...

1.4.9. checkcallingtranslation()

   This function is used to check if the calling number is
   translated. Before calling checkcallingtranslation,
   prepareosproute should be called. If the calling number does
   been translated, the original Remote-Party-ID, if it exists,
   should be removed from the INVITE message. And a new
   Remote-Party-ID header should be added (a RPID value for the
   RPID AVP has been set by prepareosproute). If the calling
   number is not translated, nothing should be done.

   This function can be used from BRANCH_ROUTE.

   Example 1.38. checkcallingtranslation usage
...
if (checkcallingtranslation()) {
  # Remove the Remote_Party-ID from the received message
  # Otherwise it will be forwarded on to the next hop
  remove_hf("Remote-Party-ID");

  # Append a new Remote_Party
  append_rpid_hf();
}
...

1.4.10. reportospusage()

   This function should be called after receiving a BYE message.
   If the message contains an OSP cookie, the function will
   forward originating and/or terminating duration usage
   information to a peering server. The function returns TRUE if
   the BYE includes an OSP cookie. The actual usage message will
   be send on a different thread and will not delay BYE
   processing. The function should be called before relaying the
   message.

   Meaning of the parameter is as follows:
     * "0" - Source device releases the call.
     * "1" - Destination device releases the call.

   This function can be used from REQUEST_ROUTE.

   Example 1.39. reportospusage usage
...
if (is_direction("downstream")) {
  log(1,"This BYE message is from SOURCE\n");
  if (!reportospusage("0")) {
    log(1,"This BYE message does not include OSP usage information\n");
  }
} else {
  log(1,"This BYE message is from DESTINATION\n");
  if (!reportospusage("1")) {
    log(1,"This BYE message does not include OSP usage information\n");
  }
}
...
