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

  • A computer running MXLinux Latest.
  • A user account with sudo or root access.

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.
