Ubuntu 15.04
It is glad to hear that Ubuntu 15.04 is released today. We download the latest 64bit version and install it in virtualbox to test our new miniSIPServer V20 version.
We are very glad that it is no problem to run miniSIPServer V20 on this Ubuntu version. So you can enjoy it yourself if you want to try latest Ubuntu 15.04.
Of course, since 15.04 is not LTS version and is not recommanded to most customers, we suggest you to stay with LTS Ubuntu, such as 12.04 or 14.04.

miniSIPServer V20 released!
Yesterday we released the latest miniSIPServer, V20! This version is focus on following items:
(1) Call park service refined.
In previous version, MSS can accept “unattended transfer” call to park the user’s previous call. This method works in most scenarios, but some SIP devices cannot do that because they don’t have “transfer” button to invoke “unattended transfer” call. For some customers, they are confused on how to invoke such call.
So we decide to refine this service. V20 can accept a new call to park previous call. That means customers can invoke a new call directly to “*70*1” to park their previous calls. That could be easy to understand and do such operation.
(2) openAPI refined.
In V20, we unified openAPI interfaces and inner web management systems. That means they are using the same inner interfaces now. In the openAPI document, we just list several interfaces, in fact openAPI has almost all interfaces now and can work as same as web management system. Customers can design their own web system based on openAPI interfaces.
Of course, we will keep refining openAPI document to make it clear to customers.
disable “only permit incoming call”
V19 is updated to support some new features in external line. We add a new item “maximum simultaneous outgoing call” in “outgoing call” tab.
This new item can limit how many concurrent calls can be processed by the external line. It it is configured to be zero, that mean the line cannot make any outgoing call.
That also means previous item “only permit incoming call” is unnecessary, so we cut this item together.
miniSIPServer V19 released.
V19 is released today to provide some features and optimization:
- new embedded HTTP server.
A new embedded HTTP server is designed and implemented in V19 to replace previous server to provide higher performace and better structure.
- Time condition service
It is a tradtional PBX service. Please refer to the service document for more details.
- Some system features are optimized.
V19 is recommended for all new VoIP deployment. Upgrading from all other versions of miniSIPServer is optional.
GHOST bug
This is a new bug reported in Linux platform. It is caused by invoking ‘gethostbyname’ function. We check our codes and find it is very lucky that we didn’t use this function.
So it is no problem to keep your MSS running in Linux platform. Of course, it is better to upgrade your Linux system since other applications might have this bug.
Windows10
say goodbye to Gtalk
As you know, MSS can use Gtalk as external line to bridge Gtalk and SIP networks. It is a good idea and we are happy to provide this feature for our customers.
But since Google gives up Gtalk, it seems we have no choice to discard it. We update MSS V18 today to cut Gtalk out.
Gtalk is good, but time to say good bye now. If you are still using this feature, you can keep your MSS at V16 which is LTS version and we will maintain it for at least one year.
webRTC now!
webRTC is defined in HTML5 to support real-time communication. We spent several months in this technology and release the latest V18 to support it finally!
Now you can connect Chrome to miniSIPServer to work as local user. It is so interesting and hope it can help you to deploy your own VoIP network.
Please refer to following document for more details about webRTC in MSS:

ubuntu 14.10
Ubuntu 14.10 is released today. We download and install it in our lab and make some test with miniSIPServer V17 (for linux).
It is no problem to run miniSIPServer on the latest Ubuntu system. Please enjoy it!
