A third-party billing system can be used to parse the CDRs of the CDRServer and charge users for calls.
The CDRServer obtains CDRs from the CDR pool of the unified gateway and stores them as binary files (with the file name extension .bill) or text files (with the file name extension .txt) to a specific location (shared directory).
Using FTP or FTPS, a third-party billing system obtains these binary or text CDR files from the shared directory using the authenticated FTP or FTPS user name and password.
The third-party billing system can parse the obtained binary or text CDR files, convert the file format, and save them in the database, so the system can charge users for calls and users can conveniently query call details.
Using FTP to transfer files may bring some security risks because FTP is an insecure protocol. It is recommended that you use the FTPS protocol.
If the third-party billing system needs to parse the CDR files, see the UScale X1900 series CDR Interface Document for the configuration.
Your enterprise provides a third-party billing system.
