This is an LA release that will only be provided to a select number of PLM-sanctioned customers (PDFs only). Contact PLM for details.

The following fields are populated in the Recording CDR. As this is generated for each SRS separately, the SBC does not add recorder(s) information here.

Note

The SBC generates timestamps in the local time format in the ACT files for any of the fields that were previously in the GMT time format.

Record number
Comment
RECORDING9Characters1The string "RECORDING" indicating this is a Recording-CDR
Gateway Name23Characters2

If parameter loading is turned on, then the previously configured node name will appear in the REBOOT and SWITCHOVER records.

If parameter loading is turned off or Node Name object is never configured, this value is "None" in the REBOOT and SWITCHOVER records.

Accounting ID1864-Bit Hex3This identifier occurs in each record, and combined with the Gateway Name field uniquely identifies the call accounting information on a network basis for an extended period of time. In a REBOOT record, this is the accounting ID of the first call attempted on the GSX.

Note: To reduce the size of CDRs, the SBC metadata captures only the callData body of the metadata XML. The remaining information in the metadata can be derived from other fields of this CDR.

This is the metadata sent in the INVITE.

Note: BYE has different metadata and is ignored. GCID in metadata is not added in this field as there is a separate field for it.

Notes on Media Stream
  • In a recording session, the SRS does not send any media or feedback (RTCP) about the media. The following fields are applicable in this CDR, the rest are listed as 0.
    • Number of Streams = always 1 (audio) for this release
    • mediaType1 = audio
    • streamIndex1 = 1
    • Ingress packetSent1 (statistics of the Rx stream)
    • Ingress octetSent1 (statistics of the Rx stream)
    • Ingress packetDiscarded1 (policy discarded) (statistics of the Rx stream)
    • Egress packetSent1 (statistics of the Tx stream)
    • Egress octetSent1 (statistics of the Tx stream)
    • Egress packetDiscarded1 (statistics of the Tx stream)
  • Packet stats are only for packets transmitted from the SBC marked separately for each SRS stream.
  • In media stream data and statistics, the information and statistics for the Rx stream (packets from the target peer to SBC forked to --> SRS stream1) are captured in the Ingress portion, the information and statistics for the Tx stream (packets from SBC to target peer forked to SRS stream 2) are captured in the Egress portion.
Note

The "Metadata" field in RECORDING CDR contains the dump of the updated SIPREC Metadata XML that was sent to the SRS for metaDataSource set to "fromLatest". The latest (most recent) metadata information sent towards the SRS is logged onto the RECORDING CDR.
