How to install OpenSIPS on Raspberry Pi?

1. Create a new SIP account for the extension in your OpenSIPS database or user location module. This will typically involve adding a new record to your MySQL, PostgreSQL, or other database, or creating a new user in your user location module.

2. Define the routing rules for the extension in your OpenSIPS configuration file. This will typically involve adding a new route block that matches the extension number or SIP URI and specifies the actions to take when a call is received for that extension.

   For example, the following configuration block defines a route for extension 1000 that forwards incoming calls to the SIP address “sip:1000@example.com”:

   route {
if (uri == "sip:1000@example.com") {
# Forward the call to extension 1000
forward("sip:1000@192.168.1.100");
exit;
}
}


3. Reload your OpenSIPS configuration file to apply the changes:

   opensipsctl reload


4. Configure your SIP client or PBX to register the new extension with OpenSIPS. This will typically involve entering the SIP address or extension number, username, password, and server address in your client or PBX configuration settings.

5. Test the extension by making a call to its SIP address or number. If everything is configured correctly, the call should be forwarded to the extension and you should hear ringing or an answer from the extension.

Keep in mind that adding an extension to OpenSIPS may involve additional configuration steps depending on your specific use case and network topology.

You should carefully follow the instructions and best practices provided by the OpenSIPS documentation and community to ensure a secure and reliable installation.

However, there are several open-source UIs available that you can use to monitor and manage your OpenSIPS deployment.

One popular option is the OpenSIPS Control Panel (OCP), which is a web-based UI that provides a graphical interface for configuring and monitoring your OpenSIPS instance.

Here are the general steps to install the OpenSIPS Control Panel (OCP) on your OpenSIPS server:

1. Install a web server (e.g., Apache, Nginx) on your OpenSIPS server, if not already installed. You can install Apache by running the following command:

   sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install apache2


2. Install PHP and the required PHP modules on your OpenSIPS server. You can install PHP and the required modules by running the following command:

   sudo apt-get install php php-cli php-mysql php-gd php-xml php-curl php-mbstring


3. Download the latest version of OCP from the official website:

   wget https://github.com/OpenSIPS/opensips-cp/archive/8.0.tar.gz


4. Extract the downloaded archive and move the OCP files to your web server’s document root directory:

   tar -xzf 8.0.tar.gz
sudo mv opensips-cp-8.0 /var/www/html/opensips-cp


5. Create a new MySQL database and user for OCP. You can use the following commands to create a new MySQL database and user:

   sudo mysql -u root -p
create database opensipscp;
create user opensipscpuser@localhost identified by 'password';
grant all on opensipscp.* to opensipscpuser@localhost;
exit;


6. Import the OCP database schema into the new database:

   sudo mysql -u root -p opensipscp < /var/www/html/opensips-cp/config/tools/opensips-cp-8.0/mysql/schema.sql


7. Configure OCP by copying the sample configuration file and modifying it with your database and OpenSIPS server settings:

   cd /var/www/html/opensips-cp/config
sudo cp opensips-cp.cfg.sample opensips-cp.cfg
sudo nano opensips-cp.cfg


   In the configuration file, set the values for DB_HOST, DB_USER, and DB_PASS to match your MySQL database settings, and set the value for OPENSIPS_HOST to match the IP address or hostname of your OpenSIPS server.

8. Start your web server and navigate to the OCP URL in your web browser:

   http://<your-server-ip>/opensips-cp/


   You should see the OCP login page. Use the default username admin and password opensips to log in.

Once you have successfully installed OCP, you can use it to monitor your OpenSIPS deployment, view call statistics, configure routing rules, and manage users and extensions.
