1: The PERS Architecture Architecture Typically, the PERS architecture as below: This document assumes that the Windows OS are already deployed and that Microsoft administrators are available to administrators of PUCS (PortSIP Unified Communications System). 6
2: How it works? For example a ITSP currently running the VoIP Service on a server which in US: sip.example.com, the port is 5060, provider want extend the VoIP servic e to UAE(the country which blocked the VoIP). Provider just need to setup a PERS server and place it in a country which is not block the VoIP, such as Japan, US, Germany etc., we recommend place the PERS server near the SIP server to get the best voice quality. Assuming the PERS server IP is: 207.20.74.8, port is: 8022. In the PERS configure file, point the PERS to SIP server: sip.example.com. The UAE users run PortSIP's PortGo Softphone or a client which created base on PortSIP VoIP SDK, choose the transport to "PERS", enter the PERS IP "207.20.74.8" as SIP server IP, enter the PERS port 8022 as SIP server port, then all are done, the users can make and receive VoIP calls through the PERS, between clients and PERS all SIP messages and RTP packets are encrypted by AES, the PERS relay all packets between clients and SIP server: sip.example.com. 7
3: Configuring PERS It's easy and simply to configure a PERS to integrate into a living VoIP System. The PERS only has one configuration file: PERS.config. Let us assume a living VoIP service on sip.example.com domain, the SIP server is "sip.example.com", the port is 5060, this server in US, in no VoIP blocking area, we can use this service with softphone just enter SIP server: sip.example.com, port: 5060, and username, password, see below screenshot: In the UAE, the VoIP was blocked, we can't use the VoIP service. Now let us extend the VoIP Service to UAE users with PERS. Preparing a server for PERS Prepare a server for PERS and place it in US too, this server should near to sip.example.com server in order to get very fast communication between PERS with sip.example.com, it can be Windows or Linux (Ubuntu 12.04 or higher, Debian 7.4 or higher recommended). Assume the PERS server public IP is: 207.20.74.8. Edit the configure file Use a text editor to open the PERS.config, edit below items: PERSBindIP = 207.20.74.8 PERSListenPort = 8022 AudioRTPServerPort = 10088 VideoRTPServerPort = 10098 SIPServer = sip.example.com SIPServerPort = 5060. Note: You can feel free change the port 8022, 10088, 10098. Don't set "PERSListenPort" to 5060, because this port is blocked in the middle east. 8
PortSIP Encryption Relay Server Deployment Guide Wave 3 Run the PERS Run the PERS on the server. Windows: Double click the PERS.exe to run it; CTRL+C to shutdown. Linux: enter "./PERS" to run it; CTRL+C to shutdown. Note 1: Must copy the *.so files to /libs or /lib64 Note 1: If you got the "/usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6: version 'GLIBCXX_3.4.15' not found" error, this is cause the "GLIBCXX_3.4.15 is not inlcude in your GCC, you should upgrade your libstdc++ to newer version. Register Softphone to PERS The UAE users use PortGo Softphone Now the UAE(or other VoIP blocked area) users can run our PortGo softphone or SDK, set the transport to "PERS", enter PERS server IP "207.20.74.8" as SIP server IP, enter the port 8022 as SIP server port to use it.. 9
