Chapter 1: Overview

Hop-off PBX Call

Hop-off numbers are phone number patterns for calls to be routed out trunks. They are entered in a HopoffNumberDirectory and associated with TrunkCircuitRoutingGroups that govern the trunks where matching calls should be sent.

Tenor CMS supports those Hop-off PBX calls where the destination Tenor CMS is programmed to route the call to the PSTN via Trunk Circuit. (A Hop-off PBX call is a toll call which hops through a private network to reduce or eliminate the toll charge.) The destination Tenor CMS unit is configured with the phone numbers to be “supported” for this feature.

SNMP Support

The Tenor CMS unit supports Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP), the standard protocol used to exchange network information between different types of networks. The Tenor CMS unit acts as an SNMP agent—using HP Openview—to receive commands and issue responses to the network manager. The network manager will then be able to perform certain functions, such as receiving traps from Tenor CMS.

Call Detail Recording

Through the Call Detail Record (CDR) feature, the Tenor CMS may generate a call record at the completion of each call, typically for accounting purposes. A CDR is a string of data that contains call information such as call date and time, call duration, calling party, and called party. Tenor CMS may store call detail records locally or they can be sent to a CDR server within the network. The CDR contains sufficient information to capture billing data, which can be used to create billing reports by third party billing software.
