To everyone that has contacted me about this application, I'm happy to share with you that I have gotten approval from our CEO to release it as a free app, however it will be restricted in some commercial uses (e.g. you can't repackage it and sell it as a product, etc).

Once I have it past the lawyers and their standard "if you install this and it starts world war 3, it's not our fault" disclaimers that will have to be added, I will make a point to get it set up somewhere and post a link on this list and a couple others.

Please be patient.  As we all know, lawyers like to take their time so it appears that we're paying all that money for a reason. ;-)  Stay tuned!

The utility was written by Alex as a replacement for pcapsipdump.  pcapsipdump suffers from severe performance and stability problems with any appreciable traffic.

I can vouch that Alex's utility is very stable and efficient, but I do have to take exception to the "inexpensive (read: basically free!)" statement, as the utility is wholly owned (as per work-for-hire agreement) by Ifbyphone, Inc.

Please contact me off-list if you would like to discuss using the utility.  I do not believe there is an issue with us releasing the utility "free as in beer", however I am not the one that can authorize such a release.  I will have to confirm this with our upper management.

Thanks

What's wrong with pcapsipdump? You can pipe input into that I believe... its an old tool but it still works. :-)

Kristian,

Alex has an elegant and inexpensive (read: basically free!) solution that you might want to check out.  Here's a brief description (I've culled from a personal email, so I hope I don't misrepresent it)

So I wrote a highly parallelised, multithreaded tool that runs on such a "capture box" and listens to SIP traffic intelligently.  It automatically identifies the media ports involved in a call and records both SIP and RTP to distinct capture files in a dated directory hierarchy separated by day and hour.  The capture file contains the date, time, ANI, DNIS and Call-ID.

You should give him a shout: Alex Balashov <abalashov at evaristesys.com<mailto:abalashov at evaristesys.com>>

I can vouch for the quality and effectiveness of his solutions.

Hello everyone,

 Does anyone know of a tool to split PCAP files that is SIP+RTP
aware?  Ideally I'd be able to record a PCAP file with any number of
calls and then have a utility split that file into each separate call?
 I'm pretty sure I've seen a utility to do this, I just can't remember
the name...

Thanks!
