Client Mode

[kelchy]

I am looking for a SIPP alternative, thought I could use this as a better testing tool. is client mode supported? i am willing to help out if not

Not sure what do you mean by client mode. But sure, sip.js can send requests. For example examples/make_call.js makes a bogus call.

kirill,

i would like to suggest a way for developer to use random ports. use case: when you generate test traffic, there are times to want simultaneous requests to happen originating from separate ports.

sip.start(options, callback) - options should have port : 0 where sip stack will try to bind to a random port and if it used, try another one for a few times, then error out when not available.

if i'm not mistaken, socket.bind() already support this, only thing we need to do is make sure we don't call defaultPort() but rather, refer to the current bound port.

is my understanding correct?
