TelcoBridges and call detail records
TelcoBridges products support the generation of call detail records in text format. They also support the ability to export call detail records to a RADIUS server for accounting purposes. Both methods can be used simultaneously.
Text CDRs are stored locally on the TMG units and must be extracted from the system either manually, or automatically.
If the network supports RADIUS, this method is preferred as each record will be sent in a timely manner to an external database for storage.
