How to Install SIP3 on MXLinux Latest

Overview

SIP3 is an open-source SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) toolkit that helps to troubleshoot, monitor or analyze VoIP networks. In this tutorial, we will show you how to install SIP3 on MXLinux Latest.

Prerequisites

Steps

Step 1: Update system packages

Before installing SIP3, it’s important to update the system packages using the following command in the terminal:

sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y

Step 2: Install Docker

SIP3 requires Docker to be installed on the system. You can install Docker using the following command:

sudo apt install docker.io -y

Once the installation is complete, start and enable Docker using the following command:

sudo systemctl start docker
sudo systemctl enable docker

Step 3: Install SIP3

To install SIP3, you need to use the following Docker command:

sudo docker run -d \
  --name sip3 \
  --restart always \
  -p 8080:8080/tcp \
  -p 8022:22/tcp \
  -v /opt/sip3/data:/usr/local/sip3/data \
  -v /opt/sip3/logs:/usr/local/sip3/logs \
  sip3/sip3-platform:latest

This command will pull the latest SIP3 image from Docker Hub, create a new Docker container with the name sip3 and map the container ports 8080 and 22 to the host ports 8080 and 8022 respectively. It also creates two Docker volumes /opt/sip3/data and /opt/sip3/logs and map them to the container volumes /usr/local/sip3/data and /usr/local/sip3/logs respectively.

Once the command is executed, you can verify if SIP3 is running by visiting http://localhost:8080 in your web browser.

By default, SIP3 is installed with no configuration. You need to configure it to start monitoring and analyzing your VoIP network. SIP3 provides a detailed guide on how to configure SIP3 on its official documentation at https://sip3.io/docs/#/latest/quick-start-guide.
