SIP Recording (SIPREC) supports the IETF standard for a SIP recording interface. Per SIPREC architecture, the
acts as Session Recording Client (SRC) and an RTP translator. To support SIPREC, the
acts as a Session Recording Client (SRC) initiating a Recording Session (RS) towards a Session Recording Server (SRS). The
initiates a recording session for all the Communication Sessions (CS) to be recorded. The CS output is based on the
's WebUI configuration for enabling recording.
This Best Practice details the steps for configuring SIPREC via the following
WebUI options: SIP Recorder Table, SIP Server Table (acting as a SIP Recorder), and a Signaling Group.

This step configures the SIP Server Table to be used for SIP Recording. A SIP Server Table acting as a SIP Recorder contains information about the SIP devices connected to the
for SIP Recording. To support SIPREC, the
acts as a Session Recording Client (SRC) initiating a Recording Session (RS) towards a Session Recording Server (SRS). Through the SIP Server Table option, you select SIP Recorder.
- In the left navigation pane, go to SIP > SIP Server Tables.
- Click the Create (
) icon. - In the Description field, enter a descriptive name for the SIP Server Table.
From the Type drop down box, select SIP Recorder.
Click OK.

- Click OK.
- In the left navigation pane, go to SIP > SIP Server Tables. Click on the desired SIP Server Table just created.
From the Create SIP Server drop down list, select IP/FQDN or DNS-SRV. The associated configuration screen is displayed.
Configure the options. Refer to Creating and Modifying Entries in the SIP Recorder Table.
- Click OK.
Step 3: Create an entry in the SIP Recorder Table
A SIP Recorder Table contains information a Signaling Group used to start a SIP Recording (SIPREC) session. Through the configuration options, you select the Recording Server (SIP Server) as well as the SIP channels, routing, and media, All of this information directs the SBC on how to communicate with the Session Recording Server (SRS).
Create an Entry in the SIP Recorder Table as follows:
- In the WebUI, click the Settings tab.
In the left navigation pane, SIP > SIP Recording.
Click the Create (
) icon. The Create SIP Recorder window is displayed.

Encryption of recorded media towards SRS is not supported, the media sent to the SRS is sent as it is exchanged for the main call. |

- Configure the fields. For details on field configuration, refer to Creating and Modifying Entries in the SIP Recorder Table.
- Click OK.
A signaling group is required to enable SIP Recording. You can either select an existing signaling group or create a new one.
Add a signaling group as follows:
- In the WebUI, click the Settings tab.
- In the left navigation pane, go to Signaling Groups.
- Click the expand (
) Icon next to the entry you wish to modify. - From SIP Recording Status, select Enabled.
- From the SIP Recorder drop down list,select SIP Recorder. The SIP Recorder available entries are populated from the Recording Server Table created above.
- Configure the remaining properties as required. For details refer to Creating and Modifying SIP Signaling Groups.

- Click OK.
Confirm SIP Recording calls as follows:
Access the WebUI. Refer to Logging into the
.In the WebUI, click the Settings tab.
In the left navigation pane, click SIP > SIP Recording.
- Select the desired SIP Recording Table entry (the example below is SRS).
