SER features presence support, RADIUS/syslog accounting and authorization, XML-RPC-based remote control and others.Web-based user provisioning, serweb, is available.

SER's performance allows it to deal with operational burdens, such as broken network components, attacks, power-up reboots and a rapidly growing user population. SER can be configured for many scenarios including small-office use, enterprise PBX replacements and carrier services.

History

SER was initially developed by Fraunhofer [http://www.fokus.fhg.de FOKUS] in 2001. Part of the Fokus teamthen moved, with the SER copyrights, to a newly created company, [http://www.iptelorg.com iptelorg] in 2004. Two of the five SER core developers and one main contributor started a new Open Source project named OpenSER. Additional open source code was contributed by independent third parties.

SER and OpenSER followed different development paths.

SER 2.0 Release Candidate 1(Ottendorf) was made available May 12, 2007 and is currently undergoing heavy development.

The SER project remains open source.

in 2005 the company IPtel.org was bought by TEKELEC, and is responsible for the TEKELEC session router and CSCF.
