Set external FreeSWITCH SIP port

[Alex Gotev]

Hello everybody,
I'm integrating BBB 0.8 with an external FreeSWITCH server and I need to be able to set the remote FreeSWITCH port to contact when making a SIP call. I know that the default value is 5060 as stated by RFC 3261.Is it possible to set the port's value from a BBB configuration file or some coding is necessary to implement this customization?
If coding is necessary, no problem I can do it and the changes will be committed to my public bbb fork on GitHub (https://github.com/alexbbb/bigbluebutton).

By analyzing the sources I've seen that to be able to set a specific remote SIP port some coding is necessary. My plan is to add a new parameter called sip.remoteserver.port to bigbluebutton-sip.properties. The default value will be 5060.

That would be great. I tried using a different port from 5060 but as you said, there are code changes needed. Did not have time to figure it. 

Make sure that you change conf/vars.xml in FreeSWITCH to listen to the right port. We had to change the default ports as 5080 is used by Red5.

I've opened an issue on the tracker here http://code.google.com/p/bigbluebutton/issues/detail?id=1359 and posted my solution that is publicly hosted on my GitHub repo. See the issue for more info.

@Richard:
I have not changed any of the local FreeSWITCH files that come with BBB, because this setting is supposed to be used only when a sysadmin decides to work with an external FreeSWITCH, so it's up to him to configure it properly on the remote machine.
