Description-en: secure peer-to-peer SIP VoIP server - CGI XML-RPC interface
GNU SIP Witch is a secure peer-to-peer VoIP server. Calls can be made
even behind NAT firewalls, and without needing a service provider. SIP
Witch can be used on the desktop to create bottom-up secure calling
networks as a free software alternative to Skype. SIP Witch can also
be used as a stand-alone SIP-based office telephone server, or to
create secure VoIP networks for an existing IP-PBX such as Asterisk,
FreeSWITCH, or Yate.
.
This package contains the CGI-based XML-RPC interface for managing a
locally resident sipw daemon, including the ability to collect
statistics and call information, and to perform control operations.
This is meant to support creation of remote management applications
for sipwitch, especially when sipw might be executed on a dedicated
router.
