SYNOPSIS

9       sofsip_cli [ options ] sip-contact-addr
10

DESCRIPTION

12       Sofsip_cli  is  a  small  SIP  VoIP/IM  client  based  on the Sofia-SIP
13       libraries, and the gstreamer media subsystem.
14

OPTIONS

16       The following command-line options can be used to modify sofsip_cli be‐
17       haviour:
18
19       --autoanswer
20              If  given,  answer incoming call automatically without prompting
21              the user.  Defaults to 'FALSE'.
22
23       --contact SIPURI
24              The SIP contact address. E.g.,  "sip:*:50600"  to  bind  to  all
25              local  IP  addresses with port 50600. You can also specify addi‐
26              tional    transport    parameters,    e.g.    "sip:*:5060;trans‐
27              port=tcp,udp". Defaults to "sip:local-interface-ip:5060".
28
29       --media-addr ip-address
30              Local interface that should be used by the RTP/RTCP stack.
31
32       --media-impl {dummy,gstreamer,farsight}
33              Select which media implementation to use.
34
35       --proxy SIPURI
36              Use  a  SIP  proxy  for  outgoing message. Defaults to an emptry
37              string (no outgoing proxy used).
38
39       --stun-server hostname
40              The STUN server address to use for NAT traversal. If  no  server
41              is  specified,  sofsip_cli tries to find the STUN server address
42              from the DNS-SRV records of the SIP address domain. Defaults  to
43              an emptry string.
44
45       sip-public-addr
46              The  public  SIP  address  (AOR)  to  use.  E.g. "sip:first.sur‐
47              name@foobar.com".  Defaults to "sip:local-interface-ip".

ENVIRONMENT

55       Sofsip_cli understands the following environment variables.
56
57       SOFSIP_ADDRESS
58              AoR (URI),  e.g.  "sip:first.surname@domain.com".   Defaults  to
59              "sip:local-interface-ip".
60
61       SOFSIP_PROXY
62              SIP   outbound  proxy  (URI),  e.g.  "sip:sip-proxy.domain.com".
63              Defaults to an emptry string (no proxy used).
64
65       SOFSIP_REGISTRAR
66              SIP registrar/server  (URI),  e.g.  "sip:sip-server.domain.com".
67              Defaults to an emptry string (no registrar specified).
68
69       SOFSIP_CERTDIR
70              Directory  where to look for TLS certificates (filesystem path).
71              Defaults to "$HOME/.sip/auth".
72
73       SOFSIP_STUN_SERVER
74              Specify the STUN server address to use. If empty, the stack  may
75              perform  a  DNS  SRV look-up for a STUN server advertized by the
76              home domain of the user. Defaults to "".
77
78       SOFSIP_AUDIO
79              Specify a configuration hint for audio device  subsystem  selec‐
80              tion.   The text should match a GStreamer plugin description for
81              certain audio device subsystem. Whether the hint is  taken  into
82              consideration  or  not,  depends  on  the  media  implementation
83              selected.  Defaults to "ALSA" (other alternatives "OSS",  "OSX",
84              and so on).
85
86
87       TPORT_LOG
88              An internal Sofia-SIP variable. If set to "1", received and sent
89              signaling messages are printed out to stdout.  This  is  a  very
90              useful mechanism for debugging.
