Generating Call Detail Records

The Call Detail Record (CDR) contains vital statistic information on calls made from the
device. The device can be configured to generate and report CDRs for various stages of
the call, including SIP messages and/or media. You can configure when CDRs for a call
are generated, for example, only at the end of the call or only at the start and end of the
call. Once generated, the device sends the CDRs to a user-defined Syslog server.
The CDR Syslog message complies with RFC 3161 and is identified by Facility 17 (local1)
and Severity 6 (Informational).
For CDR in RADIUS format, see 'RADIUS Accounting CDR Attributes' on page 467.
