Tenor CMS Establishes Connection with CDR Server

To capture CDR reports via CDR server (i.e., a PC or workstation you use to capture CDR data) you must first configure the IP address and port number of the CDR server in the Tenor CMS unit. Once these are config- ured, the Tenor CMS unit will be able to establish a TCP/IP session with the server on its own.

CDR Server Establishes Connection with Tenor CMS

If no IP address/port number is configured. The CDR server has to initiate the session. The Tenor CMS unit uses TCP port numbers 9002, 9003, 9004, and 9005 on its side for the CDR sessions. The CDRServerport must still be configured to either 9002, 9003, 9004, or 9005 (see the Command Line Interface user guide for specific information).

Whether the Tenor CMS unit establishes the connection with the CDR server or the CDR server attempts to establish the connection, there is a limit of 5 attempts to enter the correct password before the TCP session is terminated (to configure a password, see the CLI command cdrpassword in the previous section).

After the CDR server successfully logs into the CDR port of the Tenor CMS unit, the CDR server will be provided with the IP address and unit name of the Tenor CMS. The CDR server will then supply the sequence number of the last CDR that it has received from the Tenor CMS unit. If the last CDR number is unknown, the server should send 0 for the sequence number. After this exchange, the Tenor CMS will start delivering new CDRs to the server.
