== Routing modules in Yate ==
 
 
* [[Regular expressions]] module
 
* [[Javascript routing]] module
 
* [[register|Database]] routing, can also register users
 
* [[ENUM_Routing|ENUM]] based routing
 
* [[Call_Forker|Call forker]] (not quite routing but very similar)
 
* [[Clustering]] support, extends routing to multiple nodes in a cluster
 
 
The priority of each of these modules can be adjusted to implement fallbacks to other methods.
 
 
=== Round-robin routing ===
 
 
Combining the [[Call_Forker|callfork]] module with the ''rotate'' function from [[Regular expressions|regexroute]] it is possible to implement round-robin routing, with or without fallback.
 
 
Let's suppose we route all numbers starting with 031 through two main SIP providers and we have one H.323 provider as fallback.
 
 
We set in regexroute.conf an entry like this:
 
 
{|width="85%" class="wikitable"
 
|  ^031.*$=fork $(rotate,$idx031,| sip/sip:\0@provider1.net,| sip/sip:\0@provider2.net) | h323/1010\0@provider3.net;maxcall=20000
 
|}
 
 
We defined a list of two SIP call targets inside a rotate function. We also use a global (persistent between calls) variable conveniently named $idx031 so we remember it only rotates calls to the 031 prefix. Any other global variable name could be used.
 
 
The H.323 fallback route is placed outside the rotate function so it's always called last. The ''maxcall'' parameter of the message applies to all outgoing calls. There is currently no way of setting separate parameters for each individual call.
 
 
The first call comes in - let's suppose for 0310123. The initial value of variable $idx031 is undefined so zero will be assumed.
 
The following targets will be tried in sequence, each for 20 seconds (set by the maxcall parameter):
 
 
SIP: sip:0310123@provider1.net
 
SIP: sip:0310123@provider2.net
 
H.323: 10100310123@provider3.net
 
 
The first that answers will continue the call. If any of them fails the call will attempt the next target.
 
A side effect of the ''rotate'' function is to update the value of the global $idx031 variable. Since we defined only two rotation targets the value will cycle between the values 0 and 1.
 
 
Now a call comes in for 0319876. Since the previous call has changed $idx031 to 1 the attempted targets will be:
 
 
SIP: sip:0319876@provider2.net
 
SIP: sip:0319876@provider1.net
 
H.323: 10100319876@provider3.net
 
 
Finally, if instead of ''rotate'' we use the ''index'' function we will get round-robin routing without fallback between the two SIP providers, only with H.323 fallback route. Suppose we route:
 
 
{|width="85%" class="wikitable"
 
| ^031.*$=fork $(index,$idx031,| sip/sip:\0@provider1.net,| sip/sip:\0@provider2.net) | h323/1010\0@provider3.net;maxcall=20000
 
|}
 
 
The same incoming calls will generate outgoing calls to:
 
 
SIP: sip:0310123@provider1.net
 
H.323: 10100310123@provider3.net
 
 
and respectively:
 
 
SIP: sip:0319876@provider2.net
 
H.323: 10100319876@provider3.net

How to do the routing in Yate? You have to know that it is done by using messages and it can be done from one or more modules. If more than one module it is used then the priority that is set in each configuration file associated to the module will be used for the order of the execution in Yate. What is useful to know is that in each module the parameters can be set without handeling the message.

And now let's see which module are in charge with routing and some how to examples:
