Note:
• If you do not configure an IP address for a CDR server, the device sends CDRs to
the Syslog server, as configured in 'Enabling Syslog' on page 1018.
• The device sends CDRs only for dialog-initiating INVITE messages (call start), 200
OK responses (call connect) and BYE messages (call end). For SBC calls only: If
you want to enable the generation of CDRs for non-call SIP dialogs (such as
SUBSCRIBE, OPTIONS, and REGISTER), use the EnableNonCallCdr parameter.
63.2.5 Storing CDRs on the Device
The CDRs of Gateway and SBC calls generated by the device can also be stored locally
on the device (RAM).
Note: When the device is reset or powered off, locally stored CDRs are deleted.
You can specify the calls (configuration entities) for which you wish to create CDRs and
store locally. This is done using Logging Filter rules in the Logging Filters table. For
example, you can configure a rule to create CDRs for traffic belonging only to IP Group 2
and store the CDRs locally.
The locally stored CDRs are saved in a comma-separated values file (*.csv), where each
CDR is shown on a dedicated row. An example of a CSV file with two CDRs are shown
below:
