DESCRIPTION
ser or Sip Express Router is a very fast and configurable SIP proxy.
OPTIONS
-h Displays a short usage description, including all available
options.
-c Checks the config file and displays the aliases and listen
interface list.
-r Uses dns to check if it is necessary to add a "received="
field to a via.
-R Same as -r but uses reverse dns.
-v Turns on via host checking when forwarding replies.
-d Turns on debugging, multiple -d increase the debug level.
-D Runs ser in the foreground (it doesn’t fork into daemon
mode).
-E Sends all the log messages to stderr.
-T Disables TCP support.
-V Displays the version number.
-f config-file
Reads the configuration from config-file (default
/etc/ser/ser.cfg ).
-l address Listens on the specified address/interface. Multiple -l
mean listening on multiple addresses. The address format is
[proto:]address[:port], where proto = udp|tcp and address =
host|ip_address|interface_name. Example: -l localhost, -l
udp:127.0.0.1:5080, -l eth0:5062. The default behaviour is
to listen on all the ipv4 interfaces.
-n processes-no
Specifies the number of children processes forked per
interface (default 8).
-N tcp processes-no
Specifies the number of children processes forked to handle
tcp incoming connections (by default is equal to -n ).
-b max_rcv_buf_size
Maximum receive buffer size which will not be exceeded by
the auto-probing procedure even if the OS allows.
-m shared_mem_size
Size of the shared memory which will be allocated (in
Megabytes).
-w working-dir
Specifies the working directory. In the very improbable
event that ser will crash, the core file will be generated
here.
-t chroot-dir
Forces ser to chroot after reading the config file.
-u uid Changes the user id under which ser runs.
-g gid Changes the group id under which ser runs.
-P pid-file Creates a file containing the pid of the main ser process.
