SIP SIMPLE Client SDK

== sip_register ==

To use this script you must to have a valid [wiki:configuration_file configuration file].

=== Description ===

SIP offers a discovery capability. If a user wants to initiate a session

with another user, SIP must discover the current host(s) at which the

destination user is reachable. To do this, SIP network elements consult an

abstract service known as a location service, which provides address

bindings for a particular domain. Registration entails sending a REGISTER

request to a special type of UAS known as a registrar.  A registrar acts as

the front end to the location service for a domain, reading and writing

mappings based on the contents of REGISTER requests. This location service

is then typically consulted by a proxy server that is responsible for

routing requests for that domain.

This script implements REGISTER method, which registers the contact (ip:port

address) for a given address of record (SIP address).

This script will register a SIP account to a SIP registrar and refresh it

while the program is running. When Ctrl+D is pressed it will unregister.

Options:

  -h, --help            show this help message and exit

  -a ACCOUNT_NAME, --account-name=ACCOUNT_NAME

                        The account name from which to read account settings.

                        Corresponds to section Account_NAME in the

                        configuration file.

  --sip-address=SIP_ADDRESS

                        SIP login account

  -p PASSWORD, --password=PASSWORD

                        Password to use to authenticate the local account.

                        This overrides the setting from the config file.

                        Display name to use for the local account. This

                        domain is performed based on SRV and A records. This

                        overrides the setting from the config file.

                        messages (disabled by default).
