Event channel

Index
1. Description

miniSIPServer event channel is a message channel built on web socket. miniSIPServer sends inner call status or warning to outsides applications through this interface.

Event channel between miniSIPServer and applications

As illustrated in above figure, we can get following key points about miniSIPServer event channel:

  • Event channel is over websocket, so applications must establish websocket to miniSIPServer firstly.
  • Event messages are JSON format text.

At this time, miniSIPServer will check IP address of applications for authorization. If the IP address isn't configured in miniSIPServer, miniSIPServer will reject websocket connection from such IP address.

2. Configuration
2.1 System

By default, miniSIPServer opens TCP port 5080 to accept websocket connection. Of course, you can change it according to your own requirement. Please click menu "Data / System / Basic" and update "event channel port" illustrated in below figure.

2.2 IP address authorization

If application wants to connect to miniSIPServer event channel, we must add its address into miniSIPServer for authorization. Please click menu "Maintain / Event channel authorization" to add IP addresses to be trusted.
