Integrate homer, a sip stack trace utility

...

into sipXecs

Coordinator: ? (Douglas added idea but may not have time to work in it)
Summary: Embed sipXsipviewer Homer in sipXconfig sipXecs to capture stack traces with CLImessage call flow

Description:
Whether you're a newbie or veteran SIP engineer, when there's a problem getting a call through the system, you need to see the call flow to all components. sipXsipViewer is a nice utility to see the call flow, but it can be cumbersome to collect the logs. Homer offers web based sip call flow complete with db query interface.

*Resources

Goals:

  • Find active or past calls and see visual of call flow.
  • Interface should be accessible from sipXconfig admin UI

Non-Goals:

  • Be nice to capture trace in multi-cluster but probably too difficult for single day
  • Flipping all the processes into INFO log mode is PITA, so see if SIP messages can be extracted from a tcpdump output that is set to run in the backgroundOptional install, e.g. not a required install for systems that do not want the overhead.
