SylkServer

h1. Built-in Applications

h2. Multiparty Conference

SylkServer allows SIP end-points to create ad-hoc conference rooms by sending INVITE with SDP content to a random username at the hostname or domain where the server runs. Other participants can then join by sending an INVITE to the same SIP URI used to create the room.

h2. Supported Media

The INVITE and subsequent re-INVITE methods may contain one or more media types supported by the server. Each conference room mixed audio, instant messages and uploded files are dispatched to all participants.

+Audio+ The INVITE must propose a session with RTP (m=audio in SDP). Re-INVITE to add or remove audio to existing session is supported. G722, speex (both in wideband) and G711 codecs are supported.

If the end-point detects and supports this private extension, it can share the screen by pushing at regular intervals a jpeg image with the desktop content over the MSRP chat stream. The image must be encapsulated in a CPIM envelope using content type application/blink-screensharing. Blink SIP client implements this extension.

The server then makes the screenshot available at a HTTP URL and publishes this URL to all participants using the conference information notification using <agp-conf:screen_image_url> extension. Participants can see the screen using a specialized client or a regular web browser.

h2. Conference Information

To obtain the conference information send a SUBSCRIBE request to the room URI for Event conference RFC 4575. The NOTIFY contains detailed information with the list of participants, their connected endpoints, media type and stream status and information about uploaded files.
