The SBC can write accounting files containing CDRs into a compressed format. The compressed files are retained for a user-specified time period; thereafter, they are automatically deleted after a specified number of days. The compressed files are stored in the evlog directory or another directory that you specify.

The compressed files are saved using names intended to make them globally unique across all of the user's machines, by including the server information and timestamp.

In order to support existing functionality that reads the uncompressed accounting files, the ability to also write both compressed and uncompressed accounting files simultaneously is added. This enables sftp file transfer to the DSI, viewing the accounting logs in EMA, and transfer of the data to Ribbon Protect.

The compression method used is gzip streaming compression. This compression results in a file being compressed to between 10 and 15% of its original size.

Encrypet file transfer is not supported through sftp push.
