Parameter | Description |
|---|
| CDR Ver To Generate | The SBC version on which the CDRs must remain formatted even after the SBC software is upgraded. The valid values for the configuration option are 0 or 10.1 for the SBC 10.1 release. The default value for the configuration is 0 (disabled). If the option is disabled, the CDRs are formatted according to the CAM version of the software release loaded on the SBC. Note: The valid values list will change over time to support future releases. - 0 - (default – Indicates this control is disabled)
- 10_1_0
Examples of how the configuration control works if you do not want to update the billing systems with every SBC upgrade: | Upgrade Scenario | Action and/or Effect |
|---|
Upgrade from SBC 8.2 (or any old release) to 10.1 | The new control does not take effect. | Upgrade from SBC 8.2 ( or any old release) to 11.1 (or future releases later than 10.1) | - Baseline the SBC release and the Billing Systems to SBC 10.1.
- Once the SBC and the billing system are on SBC 10.1, set the new configuration on the SBC to "10.1" from 0 (disabled).
If the configuration is set to the currently-loaded SBC software version (provided the current SBC loaded version is greater than or equal to 10.1) the CDR formatting is retained according to the selected SBC version across the upgrades. | Upgrade from SBC 10.1 to 11.1 (or future release later than 10.1) | Set the new configuration to 10.1 from 0 (disabled) prior to the upgrade. | Fresh installation of the SBC (version greater than or equal to 10.1 ) | - Set the configuration before the SBC is commissioned to take the calls.
- Ensure the configuration on the new SBCs are set to 10.1 as a part of the initial config load, before taking any traffic.
Example: you are planning to add more SBCs to a cluster already using the current feature (the SBC version is 11.1 and the CDRs are formatted to 10.1 by having the new config set to 10.1 on the SBCs). |
|
| Generate SIP Recording CDR | Enables or disables generation of CDRs for recording SIP calls. - Disabled (default)
- Enabled
|
Generation Mode | The type of calls for which accounting records should be logged on this SBC 5400: - Origination (default) – Log accounting records for which this SBC 5400 is the originating gateway.
- Destination – Log accounting records for which this is SBC 5400 is the destination gateway.
- All Calls – Log accounting records for all calls.
- None – Log no accounting records. For SIP and H323 calls, accounting records are generated for all calls (ingress and egress), unless this value is none.
|
Intermediate Acct State | Choose to enable or disable Intermediate Accounting for the Node. - Disabled (default)
- Enabled
|
Intermediate Acct Interval | This configures the intermediate accounting interval, in seconds. Range: 5-86400. Default = 60 Note: This object is only applicable when the "sonusAcctIntAcctMode" object of the sonusSbxCallAccountingInServiceNotification alarm is set to interval(1).
|
Second Stage Inherit First Stage | Enable flag to allow second stage accounting records for two stage calls to inherit fields from the first stage call. |
| Patch Ver | Specifies a CAM patch version to roll the accounting file and print version-specific fields. Range: 0-255 / Default: 0 |
Populate Non-ported LNP Numbers | Enable flag to populate the Called Number Before Translation field in the accounting record for a number for which an LNP lookup was performed and lookup indicated that number has not been ported. |
Intermediate Acct Mode | Specifies the method by which intermediate records are generated. - Interval – (default) Generate an intermediate record for each 'Intermediate Acct Interval' seconds throughout the call.
- Telcordia – Generate an intermediate record whenever the call exceeds the configured 'Intermediate Long Dur Threshold' value (in hours) and the 'Intermediate Long Dur Gen Time' (of day) is reached.
|
Intermediate Long Dur Gen Time | Specifies Octet string that identifies the GMT time to generate Telcordia Long Duration accounting records. The format is 00:00:00.0, defined as: | Code Block |
|---|
| field octets contents range
----- ------- ------------ -----
1 1 hour 0..23
2 2 minutes 0..59
3 3 seconds 0..60 (use 60 for leap-second)
4 4 deci-seconds 0..9 |
|
Start Acct State | Specifies whether Start Accounting is Enabled or Disabled for the Node. - Disabled
- Enabled (default)
|
| Event Acct State | Enable flag to generate EVENT records for OOD SUBSCRIBE, REFER, NOTIFY, REGISTER, OPTIONS, MESSAGE and PUBLISH event records. CDRs are logged when OPTIONS is relayed to the egress side. - Disabled (default)
- Enabled
|
| Event Acct PSX Info State | Log event records containing PSX information, such as PSX Congestion level, PSX Processing Time, Policy Response Call Type, PSX Billing Info, Route Label. - Disabled (default)
- Enabled
|
Intermediate Trap State | Specifies whether a trap will be generated whenever an INTERMEDIATE record is generated. - Disabled (default)
- Enabled
|
Populate Remote GSX Info State | Specifies whether a destination propagates destination SBC 5400 propagates its billing data to originating GSX for GW-GW calls. - Disabled (default)
- Enabled
|
Early Attempt State | Specifies whether or not to generate early ATTEMPT records. An early ATTEMPT record is associated with an early call disconnect, before the request is sent. - Disabled – Generate early ATTEMPT records.
- Enabled – (default) Do not generate early ATTEMPT records.
Note: The SBC SIP code prevents the SBC processing issues by clearing calls when in congestion, as described below: - The SBC stores the machine congestion levels 0, 1, and 2.
- If the SBC reaches congestion level 2, the SIP code automatically stops generating the early ATTEMPT CDR.
- When the machine congestion level reduces to 0, the SIP code automatically starts to generate the early ATTEMPT CDR (assuming the generation is enabled).
- A log is generated (per SCM process) that indicates the number of early ATTEMPT CDRs not generated due to congestion.
|
Intermediate Long Dur Threshold | Specifies the Accounting INTERMEDIATE Records Duration (in hours). Must be 1-24; default is 24. This parameter is only applicable when intermediate records mode is set to telcordia. The INTERMEDIATE record is generated for each call whose duration exceeds this threshold on long duration generation time. |
Send Egress CDR Info on Receipt | Specifies whether or not to send the egress CDR information immediately after receiving and processing it. |
Populate IP TG Far End Switch Type | Specifies whether or not to use Ingress Far End Switch Type passed down from PSX IP TG for SIP ingress calls. - Disabled (default)
- Enabled
|
Max Record Sequence Num | Specifies the maximum length of the Record Sequence Number field in the CDR. - Uint16 – (default) 16-bit record sequence number: 0 to 65535.
- Uint32 – 32-bit record sequence number: 0 to 4294967295.
