<body class='hmmessage'><div dir='ltr'>Hello. Some MediaProxy questions.<div><br></div><div>I've been trying to follow these installation how-tos and OpenSIPS integration pages: http://mediaproxy.ag-projects.com, http://voiprookie.blogspot.com/2009/04/blog-post.html, http:www.smartvox.co.uk/serfaq_install_mediaproxy2.html, and http://antechxxx.blogspot.com/2012/06/how-to-manual-installation-mediaproxy.html. Those are useful in their own way (and I thank the authors), but I'm still not 100% clear.</div><div><br></div><div>First - it's terrible but I'm not sure which is the dispatcher and which is the relay. I believe OpenSIPS is the dispatcher and MediaProxy is the relay.</div><div><br></div><div>Second - The VoIP Rookie blog says</div><div><br></div><div><span style="font-size: 12pt;">In order to build and install, MediaProxy has the following requirements:</span></div><div><span style="font-size: 12pt;">- Linux (at least 2.6.18) with the following features compiled in:</span></div><div>- netfilter support</div><div>- connection tracking support</div><div>- connection tracking netlink interface</div><div>- connection tracking event notification API</div><div>- netfilter "NOTRACK" target support</div><div>- netfilter "CONNMARK" target support</div><div>- netfilter "connmark" match support</div><div>- IPv4 connection tracking support</div><div>- IP tables support</div><div>- IP tables Full NAT support</div><div><br></div><div>I looked into compiling the Linux kernel and it seems kind of crazy that I need to compile (or recompile) my Linux distro in order to install/run MediaProxy. I've searched how to compile the kernel with those modules/features and I can't find anything specific, just general instructions on how to compile the kernel from source. (If anyone knows of something specific to MediaProxy please point me in the right direction!)</div><div><br></div><div>Can't I just install netfilter, iptables, conntrack, etc, support for MediaProxy via the "apt-get install" method instead of compiling those into the kernel?</div><div><br></div><div>Third - I'm making a big assumption that you'd install OpenSIPS and MediaProxy on separate boxes in a production network. If so, I'm not sure which box I would permanently configure IP forwarding on? The dispatcher (OpenSIPS) or the relay (MediaProxy)? Or is it both?</div><div><br></div><div>I would really appreciate some direction since it's very confusing to me. Thank you very much.</div><div><br></div><div>Regards</div><div><br></div><div>Gary</div><div><br></div><div><br></div> </div></body>
