RTP Cluster - a front-end for the distributed RTPproxy network

Overview

RTP Cluster is software that sits between SIP signaling component (such as OpenSIPS, B2BUA, Kamailio etc.) and one or more RTPproxy instances. The software monitors availability of each individual RTPproxy and distributes load between them based on that availability and parameters defined by the administrator (weight and max capacity).

From the point of view of the signaling component, the RTP Cluster appears to be a normal RTPproxy running locally.

One process can support more than one cluster, each on different control socket.

The following diagram illustrates the high level design of the software.

Build

Check out the code:

$ git checkout https://github.com/sippy/go-rtp_cluster.git
$ cd go-rtp_cluster

Make sure Go environment is installed and initialized, them run:

$ go build -o rtp_cluster

Or simply:

$ make

Installation and configuration

Installation currently consists of unpacking rtp_cluster tar package into designated directory.

Configuration is performed by the rtp_cluster.xml file. Example is available in the rtp_cluster directory of the package. Default location of the configuration file is /usr/local/etc/rtp_cluster.xml.

The server can be started as follows:

$ rtp_cluster

By default the software will become a daemon and run in background. All error messages and exceptions can be found in the /var/log/rtp_cluster.log. In order to run in the foreground mode one has to specify -f flag when starting rtp_cluster.py.

OpenSIPS configuration remains the same as in the case of stand-alone local RTPproxy.

Run-time configuration adjustments

RTP Cluster provides administration CLI interface allowing to change cluster configuration on the fly. In order to connect to that interface one can either use telnet utility (only works on systems where telnet can connect to unix domain sockets), or using the supplied rtp_cluster_client.py script. Following commands are supported:

  • ls
  • list all configured clusters;
  • ls <cluster name>
  • show detailed information about the cluster with the matching name;
  • modify <cluster name> add name=<rtpproxy name>,protocol=<protocol>,address=<address>,capacity=<capacity>,weight=<weight>
    • add new RTPproxy into the cluster with matching name;
  • modify <cluster name> delete <rtpproxy name>
  • gracefully remove specified RTPproxy from the cluster. The software will check if there any sessions already in progress and will wait for them to finish before removing the entry completely;
  • modify <cluster name> suspend <rtpproxy name>
  • temporary suspend specified RTPproxy and do not create any new sessions in it. The proxy remains in the cluster configuration;
  • modify <cluster name> resume <rtpproxy name>
  • resume previously suspended proxy.

Example:

  1. Get list of configured clusters:
$ ./rtp_cluster_client.py ls
Cluster: #0
    name = Supercluster#1
    address = /var/run/rtpproxy.sock
    active members = 2
    inactive members = 0

Cluster: #1
    name = Supercluster#2
    address = /var/run/rtpproxy1.sock
    active members = 0
    inactive members = 2
OK
  1. Get detailed information about Supercluster#1 cluster:
$ ./rtp_cluster_client.py 'ls Supercluster#1'
Active members of the cluster #0:
    RTPproxy: #0
        name = RTPPROXY1
        address = [u'127.0.0.1', 22222]
        weight = 100
        capacity = 2500
        state = online
        active sessions = 0
        status = ACTIVE

    RTPproxy: #1
        name = RTPPROXY2
        address = [u'127.0.0.1', 22223]
        weight = 0
        capacity = 1500
        state = online
        active sessions = 0
        status = ACTIVE

Inactive members of the cluster #0:

OK
  1. Add new proxy to the Supercluster#2:
$ ./rtp_cluster_client.py 'modify Supercluster#2 add name=another_proxy,protocol=udp,address=1.2.3.4:567,capacity=120,weight=300'                 
OK
  1. Gracefully remove RTPPROXY2 node from Supercluster#1:
$ ./rtp_cluster_client.py 'modify Supercluster#1 delete RTPPROXY2'
OK
