Configuring SIP Endpoint SDK for Apple OS

The sample application that comes with the SIP Endpoint SDK for Apple OS distribution includes a property list (plist) that is used for configuring the application. This file is located at <SIP Endpoint SDK Installation Folder>/Sample/Src/Sip EP Sample.plist.

Important.png Note: Genesys recommends that you use the sample application as the starting point for your development efforts.

If you are developing applications from scratch, you should:

  1. Create a copy of the plist from the sample application
  2. Name it appropriately
  3. Place it in your app's Src folder.

SIP Endpoint Configuration Settings

You can customize the following settings in your SIP Endpoint SDK applications.

Section Setting Values Description
GSDefaultConnectionPolicy
networkInterface String Name of the network interface
GSDefaultDevicePolicy
audio_in_device String Microphone device
audio_out_device String Speaker device
use_headset Boolean If set to YES, the SDK uses a headset as the preferred audio input and output device.
GSDefaultEndpointPolicy
audioQos Number The integer value representing the DSCP bits to set for RTP audio packets.
includeOSVersionInUserAgentHeader Boolean If set to YES, the user agent field includes the OS version the client is currently running on. Default: NO.
ip_version IPv4

IPv6
IPv4,IPv6
IPv6,IPv4
empty

A value of IPv4 means that the application selects an available local IPv4 address; IPv6 addresses are ignored.

A value of IPv6 means that the application selects an available local IPv6 address; IPv4 addresses are ignored.
A value of IPv4,IPv6 or an empty value means that the application selects an IPv4 address if one exists. If not, an available IPv6 address are selected.
A value of IPv6,IPv4 means that the application selects an IPv6 address if one exists. If not, an available IPv4 address are selected.
Default: IPv4,IPv6.
NOTE: This parameter has no effect if the public_address option specifies an explicit IP address.
NOTE: Although the IPv6 configuration options are available in the plist file for this product, they are not supported in the 8.1.2 Release of SIP Endpoint SDK for Apple OS.

public_address String Local IP address or Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) of the machine.

NOTE: Although the IPv6 configuration options are available in the plist file for this product, they are not supported in the 8.1.2 Release of SIP Endpoint SDK for Apple OS.

rtpInactivityTimeout Number Timeout interval for RTP inactivity. Valid values are integers from 0 to 150. A value of 0 or values greater than 150 mean that this feature is not activated. A value in the range of 1 to 150 indicates the inactivity timeout interval in seconds. Default: 0.
rtpPortMin Number The integer value representing the minimum value for an RTP port range. Must be within the valid port range of 9000 to 65535. If the minimum and maximum values are not specified or are set to an invalid value, the default minimum (9000) and maximum (minimum value + 999) are used. Setting the minimum to a value that is larger than the maximum is considered an error and will result in a failure to initialize the endpoint.
rtpPortMax Number The integer value representing the maximum value for an RTP port range. Must be within the valid port range of 9000 to 65535. If the minimum and maximum values are not specified or are set to an invalid value, the default minimum (9000) and maximum (minimum value + 999) are used. Setting the maximum to a value that is less than the minimum is considered an error and will result in a failure to initialize the endpoint.
secureSignalingQos Number The integer value representing the DSCP bits to set for TCP packets.
signalingQos Number The integer value representing the DSCP bits to set for SIP packets.
sipPortMin Number The integer value representing the minimum value for a SIP port range. Must be within the valid port range of 1 to 65535. If the minimum and maximum values are not specified or are set to an invalid value, the default minimum (5060) and maximum (minimum value + 6) are used. Setting the minimum to a value that is larger than the maximum is considered an error and will result in a failure to initialize the endpoint.
sipPortMax Number The integer value representing the maximum value for a SIP port range. Must be within the valid port range of 1 to 65535. If the minimum and maximum values are not specified or are set to an invalid value, the default minimum (5060) and maximum (minimum value + 6) are used. Setting the maximum to a value that is less than the minimum is considered an error and will result in a failure to initialize the endpoint.
videoQos Number The integer value representing the DSCP bits to set for RTP Video packets.
GSDefaultSessionPolicy
AGC_mode 0

1

If set to 0, AGC (Automatic Gain Control) is disabled; if set to 1, it is enabled. Default: 1. Other values are reserved for future extensions. This configuration is applied at startup, after which time the agc_mode setting can be changed to 1 or 0 from the main sample application.

NOTE: It is not possible to apply different AGC settings for different channels in multi-channel scenarios.

auto_accept_video Boolean If set to YES, all incoming video should be accepted automatically.

NOTE: The video mode window will not be opened if auto_accept_video and auto_answer are both set to 0.

auto_answer Boolean If set to YES, all incoming calls should be answered automatically.

NOTE: The video mode window will not be opened if auto_accept_video and auto_answer are both set to 0.

reject_session_when_headset_na Boolean If set to YES, the SDK should reject the incoming session if a USB headset is not available.
sip_code_when_headset_na Number If a valid SIP error code is supplied, the SDK rejects the incoming session with the specified SIP error code if a USB headset is not available.
basic: account connection details
regInterval Number The period, in seconds, after which the endpoint starts a new registration cycle when a SIP proxy is down. Valid values are integers greater than or equal to 0. If the setting is empty or negative, the default value is 0, which means no new registration cycle is allowed. If the setting is greater than 0, a new registration cycle is allowed and will start after the period specified by regInterval.
registrationTimeout Number The period, in seconds, after which registration should expire. A new REGISTER request will be sent before expiration. Valid values are integers greater than or equal to 0. If the setting is empty or negative, the default value is 1800 seconds. If the setting is 0, registration is disabled, putting the endpoint in standalone mode.

Specifying Behavior When A USB headset Is Not Available

The following behaviors can now be specified when a SIP Endpoint user does not have a working USB headset:

  • Whether SIP Endpoint should automatically reject an incoming call
  • The SIP error code to be sent to the inviting party

Support for this feature involves several configuration settings:

  • endpoint:GSDefaultDevicePolicy:use_headset
  • endpoint:GSDefaultSessionPolicy:reject_session_when_headset_na
  • endpoint:GSDefaultSessionPolicy:sip_code_when_headset_na

Information about these settings is available in the table of SIP Endpoint Configuration Settings that appears elsewhere on this page.

You can tell whether SIP Endpoint has been instructed to use a USB headset by using the following method of GSDevicePolicyDelegate:

- (BOOL) useHeadset;

To determine whether SIP Endpoint will reject an incoming session when a USB headset is not available or to determine which SIP error code is sent if a USB headset is not available, use the following methods of GSSessionPolicyDelegate:

- (BOOL) rejectWhenHeadsetNa:(id<GSSession>) session;
- (NSString*) sipCodeWhenHeadsetNa:(id<GSSession>) session;

Configuring Message Waiting Indicator (MWI) Support

A Message Waiting Indicator (MWI) is usually an audio or visual signal that a voicemail or other type of message is waiting. SIP Endpoint SDK's MWI support involves several configuration settings:

  • endpoint:basic:mailbox:user
  • endpoint:basic:mailbox:server
  • endpoint:basic:mailbox:transport
  • endpoint:basic:mailbox:timeout

Information about these settings is available in the table of SIP Endpoint Configuration Settings that appears elsewhere on this page. You can use these settings to have SIP Server notify your application when new messages have been received by the subscribing mailbox. GSMessageWaitingIndicationService provides the following methods to control mailbox notification subscriptions:

-(GSResult) subscribeForMailbox:(GSMessageWaitingIndicationSubscription*) subscription;
-(GSResult) unsubscribeForMailbox:(GSMessageWaitingIndicationSubscription*) subscription;

Notifications are provided by GSMessageWaitingIndicationNotificationDelegate. Access to the MWI summary is provided by the following method:

- (void) state:(GSMessageWaitingIndicationState*) 
         state forSubscription:(GSMessageWaitingIndicationSubscription*) subscription

These notifications encapsulate the following information:

subscription = theSubscription;
messagesWaiting = theMessagesWaiting;
messageSummary = theMessageSummary;
