Ideas for new features

This list is a partial result of the recent user survey. It is meant as food for thought which features to add to GnuGk in the near future.

  • implement capability filtering; filter out eg. H.460 file transfers implemented in 2.2.6
  • capacity limits by prefix implemented in 2.2.7
  • extend virtual queue functionality to unregistered calls implemented in 2.2.7
  • rate limiting (set max calls per sec) implemented in 2.2.7
  • implement MakeCall feature implemented in 2.2.7
  • per call configuration of proxy mode to save bandwidth and CPU will be in 2.2.8
  • implement ODBC database-driver for authentication and accounting (Unix and Windows) will be in 2.2.8
  • SNMP agent to monitor GnuGk work in progress
  • listen to multiple ports to avoid VoIP blockage
  • store registrations in a database (for redundancy)
  • store call table in a database: a stateless gatekeeper could use IP load balancing
  • implement codec filtering, so service providers can prohibit use of certain codecs (eg. high-bandwidth codecs)
  • encryption for the status port connection
  • better GUI covering all aspects of GnuGk configuration and maintenance
  • better statistics about call quality
  • implement H.460.18 + H.460.19 support (NAT)
  • extend the ACD: role based routing, config GUI
  • LDAP authentication
  • extend call failover to all routing policies (neighbors, vqueue etc.)
  • performance optimization (more concurrent calls per server)
  • implement lawful interception (signalling and/or media)
  • extend SQLbill for rate matching by alias (not gateway IP)
  • implement DUNDi for address resolution (Asterisk style broadcast destination query)
  • support for H.225 over UDP
  • better ANI checking
  • set multiple routes via virtual queue
  • set proxy mode via virtual queue
  • rewriting / routing simulation to test config
