Edge Server configuration ¶

SSL Certificates ¶

Note

This step is to be done on each host

The Edge Solution must be configured with valid certificate for your domain.

You have to put the:

fullchain certificate: here /etc/docker/ssl/xivo-edge.crt and also here /etc/docker/ssl/xivo-edge.chain (this last location is mandatory for the SIP Proxy service)
certificate key: here /etc/docker/ssl/xivo-edge.key

Make sure that the certificate key are given readonly permission to root:

chmod 400 /etc/docker/ssl/xivo-edge.key

TURN Server Secret ¶

You must generate a secret for the TURN server (in the following it will referred to as <TURN_SECRET>).

Generate it with the following command:

openssl rand -hex 16

Keep this <TURN_SECRET>. You will need it to configure

the TURN Server
the xucserver on the XiVO CC/UC
and to generate the turn configuration on for asterisk (on XiVO Main and MDS)

TURN Server Relay Authorization ¶

Important

You MUST follow this step on the TURN Server host. Otherwise the TURN relay will not work.

You must add to the TURN configuration the IP addresses it is allowed to relay traffic to. Therefore you must add the permission for the IP of:

the XiVO
the MDS (if in XDS architecture)
and the Meetingroom (if installed)

In order to do this:

lists the IP addresses towards which the STUN/TURN Server will be allowed to send traffic to. Which is at least:
- the XiVO
- (if applicable) the MDS
- (if applicable) the Meetingroom

then add to the .env file (of the server which will host STUN/TURN Server (coturn) service) a line with the following format:

TURN_ALLOWED_PEERS="--allowed-peer-ip=<XIVO IP> --allowed-peer-ip=<MDS1 IP> --allowed-peer-ip=<MEETINGROOM IP>"

For example:

TURN_ALLOWED_PEERS="--allowed-peer-ip=192.168.240.2 --allowed-peer-ip=192.168.240.4"

3 Servers Configuration ¶

Note

Follow this part if you configure the Edge Solution on 3 servers

3 Servers Example Schema ¶

Web Proxy ¶

Note

This step is to be done on the server which will host the Web Proxy (nginx) service

Create the .env file with the following variables (replace values accordingly, and see example below):

cat > /etc/docker/edge/.env << EOF
XIVOCC_TAG=2022.10
XIVOCC_DIST=latest
XIVOCC_HOST=<IP ADDRESS OF THE XIVO CC/UC (xucserver/xucmgt/nginx server)>
XIVO_HOST=<IP ADDRESS OF THE XIVO>
EDGE_FQDN=<XIVO EDGE FQDN>
EDGE_KAMAILIO_HOST=<IP ADDRESS OF THE KAMAILIO SERVER>
EOF

Example:

given you install latest Gaia version
and given the 3 Servers Example Schema

you should come up with:

XIVOCC_TAG=2022.10
XIVOCC_DIST=latest
XIVOCC_HOST=LAN_IP1
XIVO_HOST=LAN_IP2
EDGE_FQDN=edge.mycompany.com
EDGE_KAMAILIO_HOST=DMZ_IP2

SIP Proxy ¶

Note

This step is to be done on the server which will host the SIP Proxy (kamailio) service

Create the .env file with the following variables (replace values accordingly, and see example below):

cat > /etc/docker/edge/.env << EOF
XIVOCC_TAG=2022.10
XIVOCC_DIST=latest
EDGE_FQDN=<XIVO EDGE FQDN>
XIVO_HOST=<IP ADDRESS OF THE XIVO>
XIVO_MDS_HOST_DEFAULT="default: <DATA IP ADDRESS TO MDS DEFAULT>"
EDGE_HOST_IP=<Edge server IP on which to listen>
EOF

Important

If you configure the Edge Solution for a XDS installation you must:

add to the .env file a line per MDS with the following format:

XIVO_MDS_HOST_MDS1="<mds technical name>: <DATA IP ADDRESS TO MDS1>"

For example: XIVO_MDS_HOST_MDS1="mds1: 192.168.240.2"

Mandatory step: You need to change any underscore in your mds naming to an hyphen For example, for an mds named media_server_1 : XIVO_MDS_HOST_MDS1="media-server-1: 192.168.240.2"

and add to the extra_hosts section of the kamailio service the variable XIVO_MDS_HOST_MDS1

Example:

given you install latest Gaia version
and given the 3 Servers Example Schema

you should come up with:

XIVOCC_TAG=2022.10
XIVOCC_DIST=latest
EDGE_FQDN=edge.mycompany.com
XIVO_HOST=LAN_IP2
XIVO_MDS_HOST_DEFAULT="default: LAN_IP2"
XIVO_MDS_HOST_MDS1="mds1: LAN_IP3"
EDGE_HOST_IP=DMZ_IP2

STUN/TURN server ¶

Note

This step is to be done on the server which will host the STUN/TURN Server (coturn) service

Create the .env file with the following variables (replace values accordingly, and see example below):

cat > /etc/docker/edge/.env << EOF
XIVOCC_TAG=2022.10
XIVOCC_DIST=latest
EDGE_HOST_IP=<IP OF THE STUN/TURN SERVER>
XIVO_HOST=<IP ADDRESS OF THE XIVO>
TURN_EXTERNAL_IP=<External IP of the edge Server>
TURN_SERVER_SECRET=<TURN_SECRET>
TURN_REALM=<domain name of client>
TURN_ALLOWED_PEERS=<list of allowed peers IP>
EOF

Important

Don’t forget to fill in the TURN_ALLOWED_PEERS var following TURN Server Relay Authorization

Example:

given you install latest Gaia version
and given the 3 Servers Example Schema

you should come up with:

XIVOCC_TAG=2022.10
XIVOCC_DIST=latest
EDGE_HOST_IP=DMZ_IP3
XIVO_HOST=LAN_IP2
TURN_EXTERNAL_IP=DMZ_IP3
TURN_SERVER_SECRET=<TURN_SECRET>
TURN_REALM=mycompany.com
TURN_ALLOWED_PEERS="--allowed-peer-ip=LAN_IP2 --allowed-peer-ip=LAN_IP3 --allowed-peer-ip=LAN_IP4"

1 Server Configuration ¶

Note

Follow this part if you configure the Edge Solution 1 server

1 Server Example Schema ¶

Web Proxy, SIP Proxy and TURN Server ¶

Create the .env file with the following variables (replace values accordingly, and see example below):

cat > /etc/docker/edge/.env << EOF
XIVOCC_TAG=2022.10
XIVOCC_DIST=latest
XIVOCC_HOST=<IP ADDRESS OF THE XIVOCC>
XIVO_HOST=<IP ADDRESS OF THE XIVO>

TURN_ALLOWED_PEERS=<list of allowed peers IP>
XIVO_MDS_HOST_DEFAULT="default: <DATA IP ADDRESS TO MDS DEFAULT>"
EOF

Important

Don’t forget to fill in the TURN_ALLOWED_PEERS var following TURN Server Relay Authorization

Important

Specific steps when configuring the Edge Solution with XDS architecture

Add alias for MDS IP (for SIP Proxy): you must add the MDS in the extra_host section of the SIP Proxy yml file. For this do:

add to the .env file a line per MDS with the following format:
XIVO_MDS_HOST_MDS1="<mds technical name>: <DATA IP ADDRESS TO MDS1>"
For example: XIVO_MDS_HOST_MDS1="mds1: 192.168.240.2"

Mandatory step: You need to change any underscore in your mds naming to an hyphen For example, for an mds named media_server_1 : XIVO_MDS_HOST_MDS1="media-server-1: 192.168.240.2"
and add to the extra_hosts section of the kamailio service the defined variable XIVO_MDS_HOST_MDS1 (in file kamailio-edge.yml):
extra_hosts:
- ${XIVO_MDS_HOST_DEFAULT}
- ${XIVO_MDS_HOST_MDS1}

Example:

given you install latest Gaia version
and given the 1 Server Example Schema

you should come up with:

XIVOCC_TAG=2022.10
XIVOCC_DIST=latest
XIVOCC_HOST=LAN_IP1
XIVO_HOST=LAN_IP2
EDGE_FQDN=edge.mycompany.com
TURN_SERVER_SECRET=<TURN_SECRET>
TURN_REALM=mycompany.com
EDGE_HOST_IP=DMZ_IP1
TURN_EXTERNAL_IP=DMZ_IP1
XIVO_MDS_HOST_DEFAULT="default: LAN_IP2"
XIVO_MDS_HOST_DEFAULT="mds1: LAN_IP3"
TURN_ALLOWED_PEERS="--allowed-peer-ip=LAN_IP2 --allowed-peer-ip=LAN_IP3 --allowed-peer-ip=LAN_IP4"

Start the services ¶

To start the services run the following command (you have to run it on all servers if you are in a 3 servers installation):

edge-dcomp up -d

XiVO CC configuration ¶

Note

These steps are to be done on the XiVO CC.

For XiVO UC add-on mode see XiVO UC add-on Configuration section.

On XiVO CC server (the server which hosts the xucmgt/xucserver and nginx) add the following variables in the /etc/docker/compose/custom.env file:

add XUC_INTERNAL_HOST=<XIVOCC_IP>
change XUC_HOST to the EDGE FQDN
and add the TURN_SERVER_SECRET with the <TURN_SECRET> value (the <TURN_SECRET> is the secret generated for during TURN Server Secret)
specify the REPORTING_HOST and ELASTICSEARCH_HOST to the XiVO CC LAN IP address in order for SpagoBI and Kibana report to work (note that SpagoBI and Kibana work only if you access them via the internal LAN IP address).
in order for the history to work add the RECORDING_SERVER_HOST=<IP of recording server>

XUC_INTERNAL_HOST=<XIVOCC_IP>
XUC_HOST=<XIVO EDGE FQDN>
TURN_SERVER_SECRET=<TURN_SECRET>
REPORTING_HOST=<LAN_IP1>
ELASTICSEARCH_HOST=<LAN_IP1>
RECORDING_SERVER_HOST=<RECORDING_SERVER_IP>
RECORDING_SERVER_PORT=9400

then you need to recreate components containers
```
xivocc-dcomp up -d
```

XiVO UC add-on Configuration ¶

Important

This section applies only if you are in the XiVO UC add-on mode.

To configure the UC-addon part of a XiVO, add the following variables in the /etc/docker/compose/custom.env file:

change XUC_HOST to the EDGE FQDN
and add the TURN_SERVER_SECRET with the <TURN_SECRET> value (the <TURN_SECRET> is the secret generated for during TURN Server Secret)

XUC_HOST=<XIVO EDGE FQDN>
TURN_SERVER_SECRET=<TURN_SECRET>

then you need to recreate components containers
```
xivocc-dcomp up -d
```

XiVO Configuration ¶

Note

These steps are to be done on the XiVO

If you are using the XiVO UC add-on mode you must also follow the section XiVO UC add-on Configuration

STUN/TURN server configuration ¶

On the XiVO you need to configure the STUN/TURN server address.

Warning

Your Edge installation must be up and running when you do this step. As soon as you change this configuration all WebRTC users won’t work without the Edge Solution.

In the XiVO Admin webi Services -> IPBX -> General Settings -> SIP Protocol tab Network
In parameter XiVO Edge FQDN enter the TURN server address with format FQDN:3478 or IP:3478 (you must put port 3478). Warning: this FQDN must be resolvable and reachable from the XiVO & Public Internet.
- 1 Server deployment: use the server public IP address or FQDN (i.e. edge.mycompany.com or DMZ_IP1 in 1 Server Schema)
- 3 Servers deployment: use the TURN server public IP address or FQDN (i.e. DMZ_IP3 in 3 Servers Schema)
Click save: it will reload the SIP and the RTP configuration of the XiVO (Main and MDS if any)
Then on each XiVO/MDS run the following script to generate the credentials for the TURN server (the <TURN_SECRET> is the secret generated during TURN Server Secret):
```
xivo-edge-gen-turn-cred <TURN_SECRET>
```
This script will generate new turn username and password in /etc/asterisk/rtp.d/01-xivo-edge-turn-cred.conf

You then need to reload the rtp configuration

asterisk -rx 'module reload res_rtp_asterisk.so'

Note

The turn address turnaddr is generated by confgend (see conf in file /etc/asterisk/rtp.conf).

Fail2ban ¶

Important

If you configure the Edge Solution for a XDS installation you must do it on each MDS.

You need to add Kamailio’s ip address to protect it from being banned and resulting in complete block of webrtc users.

Edit file /etc/fail2ban/filter.d/asterisk-xivo.conf and add to the ignoreregex section:
- In 3 Servers Schema replace <SIP_PROXY_HOST_IP> by DMZ_IP2
- In 1 Server Schema replace <SIP_PROXY_HOST_IP> by DMZ_IP1
```
ignoreregex = <SIP_PROXY_HOST_IP>
```
Finally restart fail2ban service:
```
systemctl restart fail2ban.service
```
