Reporting capabilities
The reporting feature on the Aastra CNX provides the following:
• Assists a system administrator in gauging port usage (and abuses), with a
view to resource planning.
• Tracks potential security breaches by unauthorized users logging into
conferences
The Aastra CNX provides raw data called Call Detail Records (CDRs) that are
stored in logs on the CompactFlash. There are two types of CDR logs:
• Call and conference activity CDR logs (cdrlog)
• Conference scheduling CDR logs (confcdrlog)
The Aastra CNX automatically generates the CDR logs in comma-separated value
(CSV) format during call activity (ISDN, H.323, and SIP), and during conference
activity of an active 24 hour period and when the Aastra CNX starts up.
You can download these CDRs to your PC and use an external application (such
as, Microsoft Excel or Microsoft Access), to produce reports. You can use CDR
log files for billing purposes and for debugging and troubleshooting the Aastra
CNX as required.
Reference
For a procedure on downloading CDRs, see Chapter 5, “Maintaining the Aastra
CNX.”
For more information about the contents of the CDRs, see Appendix B,
“Additional information about CDR logs.”
