NAME
Net::SIP::Leg - Wrapper around Socket for sending and receiving SIP packets
SYNOPSIS
my $leg = Net::SIP::Leg->new( addr => '192.168.0.2' );
$leg->deliver( $packet, '192.168.0.5:5060' );
DESCRIPTION
A Leg wraps the socket which is used to send and receive packets. It provides ways to strip Via header
from incoming packets, to add Via header to outgoing packets and to add Record-Route header while
forwarding.
It's usually not used directly, but from Net::SIP::Dispatcher.
CONSTRUCTOR
new ( %ARGS )
The constructor creates a new object based on the hash %ARGS. The following keys are used from
%ARGS:
sock The socket as IO::Socket::INET object. "addr", "port" and "proto" will be determined from
this object and not from %ARGS.
addr The local address of the socket. If this is given but no port it will extract port from addr,
if it's in the format "host:port".
port The port of the socket. Defaults to 5060.
proto The connection protocol, e.g. 'tcp' or 'udp'. Defaults to 'udp'.
contact Optional contact information which will be added as Record-route header to outgoing requests
and used within Contact header for 200 Responses to INVITE. If not given it will be created
based on "addr", "port" and "proto".
If no socket is given with "sock" it will be created based on "addr", "port" and "proto". If this
fails the constructur will "die()".
The constructor will creeate a uniq branch tag for this leg.
METHODS
forward_incoming ( PACKET )
Modifies the Net::SIP::Packet PACKET in-place for forwarding, e.g strips top Via header in responses,
adds received parameter to top Via header in requests, handles the difference between forwarding of
requests to strict or loose routes and inserts Record-Route header in requests.
forward_outgoing ( PACKET, LEG_IN )
Similar to forward_incoming, but will be called on the outgoing leg. LEG_IN is the Net::SIP::Leg,
where the packet came in (and where forward_incoming was called). Will add Record-Route header and
remove itself from Route.
deliver ( PACKET, ADDR, [ CALLBACK ] )
Delivers Net::SIP::Packet PACKET through the leg $self to ADDR, which is "ip:port". Usually this
method will be call from within Net::SIP::Dispatcher.
If the packet was received by the other end (which is only possible to say if a reliable protocol,
e.g. 'tcp' was used) it will call CALLBACK if provided. See invoke_callback in Net::SIP::Util for the
format of callbacks. If the packet could not be delivered CALLBACK will be invoked with the
appropriate errno ($!).
While delivering requests it adds a Via header.
receive
Reads a packet from the socket and returns the Net::SIP::Packet PACKET and the senders ADDR as
"ip:port". If reading failed will return "()".
check_via ( PACKET )
Returns TRUE if the top Via header in the Net::SIP::Packet PACKET contains the branch-tag from $self,
otherwise FALSE. Used to check if the response came in through the same leg the response was send.
add_via ( PACKET )
Adds itself to PACKET as Via header.
can_deliver_to ( ADDR|%SPEC )
Returns TRUE if the leg can deliver address specified by ADDR or %SPEC. ADDR is a hostname which can
be prefixed by the protocol ( e.g. "udp:host" ) and postfixed by the port ( "host:port",
"tcp:host:port",... ).
If the caller has 'proto','addr' and 'port' already as separate items it can call the method with
%SPEC instead.
Right now it has now way to check if the leg can deliver to a specific host because it has no access
to the routing information of the underlying OS, so that only proto will be checked.
fd Returns socket of leg. In some special environments (like tests) there might be legs, which don't
have a socket associated. In this case you need to call receive from Net::SIP::Dispatcher yourself,
because it cannot be called automatically once it receives data on the socket.
dump
Returns string containing information about the leg. Used for debugging.
