<title>Overview</title>
<para>
The User location module module keeps a user location table and
provides access to the table for other modules. The module exports no
functions that can be used directly from routing scripts.
</para>
<section id="contact-matching-algs">
<title>Contact matching</title>
<para>
How the contacts are matched (for the same AOR - Address of Record) is an
important aspect of the usrloc module, especially in the context of NAT
traversal - this raises more problems since contacts from different
phones of the same user may overlap (if both are behind NATs with the same
configuration) or the re-register contact of the same phone may be
seen as a new one (due different binding via NAT).
</para>
<para>
The SIP RFC 3261 publishes a matching algorithm based only on the
contact string with Call-id and Cseq extra checking (if the Call-ID
is the same, it must have a higher Cseq number, otherwise it is invalid).
But as argumented above, this is not enough in NAT traversal context,
so the &kamailio; implementation of contact matching offers more algorithms:
</para>
<itemizedlist>
<listitem>
<para>
<emphasis>Contact based only</emphasis> - it is strict RFC 3261
compliancy - the Contact URI is matched as string and extra checked
via Call-ID and cseq (if Call-ID is the same, it must have a
higher cseq number, otherwise it is invalid).
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
<emphasis>Contact and Call-id based</emphasis> - it is an extension
of the first case - the contact and Call-ID must be matched as
string; the cseq must be higher than the previous one - so be
careful how you deal with REGISTER retransmissions in this
case.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
<emphasis>contact and path based</emphasis> - it is an extension
of the first case - the contact and path must be matched as
string; the cseq must be higher than the previous one - so be
careful how you deal with REGISTER retransmissions in this
case.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
<emphasis>Call-id only based</emphasis> - it is not
according to RFC3261, as it will check the Call-ID only
(independent of the Contact-Header or Path).

<section id="usrloc.p.db_mode">
<title><varname>db_mode</varname> (integer)</title>
<para>
The usrloc module can utilize a database for persistent contact storage.
If a database is used, the location database (contacts) will survive
machine restarts or software crashes. The disadvantage is that accessing
a database can be very time consuming. Therefore, usrloc module implements
four database accessing modes:
</para>
<itemizedlist>
<listitem>
<para>
0 - This disables database completely. Only memory will be used.
Contacts will not survive restart. Use this value if you need a
really fast usrloc and contact persistence is not necessary or
is provided by other means.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
1 - Write-Through scheme. All changes to usrloc are immediately
reflected in database too. This is very slow, but very reliable.
Use this scheme if speed is not your priority but need to make
sure that no registered contacts will be lost during crash or
reboot.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
2 - Write-Back scheme. This is a combination of previous two
schemes. All changes are made to memory and database
synchronization is done in the timer. The timer deletes all
expired contacts and flushes all modified or new contacts to
database. Use this scheme if you encounter high-load peaks
and want them to process as fast as possible. The mode will
not help at all if the load is high all the time. Also, latency
of this mode is much lower than latency of mode 1, but slightly
higher than latency of mode 0.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
3 - DB-Only scheme. No memory cache is kept, all operations being
directly performed with the database. The timer deletes all
expired contacts from database - cleans after clients that didn't
un-register or re-register. The mode is useful if you configure
more servers sharing the same DB without any replication at SIP
level. The mode may be slower due the high number of DB operation.
For example NAT pinging is a killer since during each ping cycle
all nated contact are loaded from the DB; The lack of memory
caching also disable the statistics exports.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
4 - This uses database to load records at startup but uses only
memory during the runtime. Records are not written back at all,
not even at shutdown. Useful for scenarios when registrations are
replicated to a node that does the storage in database during
runtime.
</para>
</listitem>
</itemizedlist>
<warning>
<para>
In case of crash or restart contacts that are in memory only and
haven't been flushed yet will get lost. If you want minimize the
risk, use shorter timer interval.
</para>
</warning>
<para>

Default value is 0.
