Tmedia units, running Toolpack software and the Gateway application, permit the recording of calls.

Calls are recorded as ".wav" files on the Tmedia unit's drive.

WARNING: For this reason, target recording is recommend for troubleshooting only and should be disabled when it is not needed. In addition, recording a large amount of calls simultaneously will have an impact on the system's performance.
