CDE Detail Description

Billing Capabilities Overview

The generic interface to the CDR dumper interface carries all the billing information in the form of call detail blocks (CDBs). When the CDR dumper receives the CDB, it writes the record in the CDR file.

CDB generation is based on a point in call (PIC). The Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch predefines several PICs that can trigger the generation of CDBs. Examples of PICs include Answered, Long Duration, and Released. For example, the Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch triggers the generation of the Answered CDB when an Answer message (ANM for SS7) is received.

Each CDB has a type associated with it that distinguishes the PIC.

CDB-required events that are triggered are passed to the CDR manager module. When an event is received, the action the CDR manager module takes is determined by its configuration. The CDR manager module either handles or ignores the event.

System Interfaces

System interfaces vary according to the configuration. The configuration can be either dual Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch (hot-standby) or standalone. The physical interface is described in the following section.

Physical Interface

The physical interface between the Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch and the mediation software (for example, Billing and Measurements Server (BAMS)) relies on guaranteed delivery of the CDB information between both Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitches. The interface consists of dual Ethernet links. Each link is physically isolated for redundancy.

RADIUS Interface

The RADIUS Enhancement for Accounting feature provides RADIUS interface support on the PGW 2200 for CDR data. For more information about the feature, including new CDRs, refer to the RADIUS Enhancement for Accounting feature guide.

Message Interface

The CDB message interface is a one-way interface to the CDR dumper. The CDR dumper saves the CDB message into the CDR files without any conversion or data manipulation. The CDR files can be retrieved by a mediation system, for example, a Cisco Billing and Measurements Server (BAMS). The mediation system can convert the CDR data into ASCII files, which can be forwarded to an external billing system for further processing.

For information about the file-transfer process, see the "FTP and SFTP Support" section.


Note Follow your local procedures for managing files created by the Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch billing process, including archiving and deleting files from your system.


CDB Message Format

The format of CDB messages being sent to the CDR dumper is based on a binary, tag-length-value (TLV) format. Each field within the CDB message has a tag, length, and value.

Figure 1-1 shows how the CDB record itself is also in TLV format, with the value part composed of multiple sub-TLVs. For performance reasons, the first few fields (tags) of the value portion of the CDB exist in a fixed order for every message. These fields are the Unique Call Correlator ID (Tag 5000), CDB Version (Tag 4000), and CDB Timepoint (Tag 4001).


Note These three fields are fixed so that the CDR dumper can have direct access to these fields without having to parse or search through all the CDB message TLV fields.


As shown in Figure 1-1, the first tag in the CDB record identifies the CDB message type. The length indicates the length of the entire message, excluding 4 bytes (2 bytes for the message tag and 2 bytes for the length).

Figure 1-1 CDB TLV Record Format

The CDB message has both mandatory fields and optional fields. The following fields are mandatory in each CDB message.

Unique Call Correlator ID

Version

CDB Timestamp

All other fields in the CDB message are considered optional. The optional fields do not appear in any sort of predefined order. The TLV format allows the application to be insensitive to the order of the message data. For example, in a 1010 Answer CDB message, the Call Reference ID tag (4002) could appear as the first optional field, whereas in another CDB message, such as 1040 Release, the Call Reference ID tag could appear as the last optional field.


Note The mandatory fields exist in each CDB message, with their associated values and locations. The optional fields can have no value. To improve performance, optional fields with no value are not included in the CDB message.


Tag Values

As shown in Figure 1-2, the tags are divided into categories. The first tag category is assigned to the CDB message ID(s), the second category is assigned to CDB format fields, and the third category is assigned to miscellaneous usage.

Each category is divided into two or more sections. One section is the MGC range, and another section is the customer-defined range. Customer-defined ranges (for each category) can be used to further process the CDB records as required by the customer.

For example, in Figure 1-2, an MGC message ID range defined by a customer (1900 through 1999) can be used for generating customer-specific CDB auditing records. The auditing records can be for beginning and ending the CDR file. You can use values in the customer-defined range of the field category (5900 through 5999) to define new fields in the CDB auditing records.

Figure 1-2 CDB Tag Categories

Formats and Codes

The CDB message tag and the length fields are binary encoded using big-endian (BE). The tag field holds the value to identify the CDB field, and the length field holds the number of octets (length) of the CDB field.


Note The length indicator value does not include the field tag octets (2 octets) or the length indicator octets (2 octets).


The CDB field value is encoded as specified BE, International Alphabet No. 5 (IA5), ANSI T1.113, or ITU Q.763).

CDB Record Types

This section describes different types of CDBs and their relation to PIC events. Creation of the CDB is based on certain PIC events (refer to Table 1-1), and other call events.

Configuring Call Screening

To initialize the database that stores call screening information, modify the SysConnectDataAccess parameter in the "Engine" section of the XECfgParm.dat file. For parameter modification, enter

Parameter modification: engine.SysConnectDataAccess.


Note Making changes to the XECfgParm.dat file requires the system software to be stopped, the parameter value changed, and the software restarted. Contact Cisco TAC before stopping the system software.


To enable or disable the A-number and B-number analysis in the call screening database, enter one of the following values:

If you do not have the database environment set with all the required data populated, set this value to false (default).

If you have the database and want the system to access it, set this value to true.

Configuring Call Detail Record File Output

To configure the call detail record (CDR) file output, modify the following parameters in the "Data Dumper" and "Engine" sections of the XECfgParm.dat file.

Parameter modification: engine.CDRencodingFormat

To specify the CDR file-encoding format, enter one of the following values:

AnsiCDB—North American (default)

ItuCDB—European

Parameter modification: engine.CDRtimeStamp

To specify the CDR file timestamp unit, enter one of the following values:

S—Seconds (default).

M—Milliseconds; use this parameter if your configuration uses TCAP.


Note If you use 1110 in the engine.CDRmessageTypes parameter (for TCAP), you must specify milliseconds for the CDRtimeStamp value.



Note The timestamp value is in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). Previously the term used was Greenwich Mean Time (GMT).


Configuring CDR Message Types

To specify which CDBs (statistics taken at various points in a call) are recorded during a call, modify the following parameter.

Parameter modification: engine.CDRmessageTypes

To specify which CDBs are recorded, enter one of the following sets of values (each number represents a point in a call):

1010, 1020, 1030, 1040, 1050, 1060, 1070, 1080—Use this set of values if your CDR files are used by a measurement server or by another CDR reader.

1060, 1110—Use this set of values if the end-of-call record is desired.

1071—Use this set of values for BAMS measurements.

Enabling Call Screening

To initialize the database that stores call-screening information, modify the following parameter.

Parameter modification: engine.SysConnectDataAccess

To enable or disable the A-number and B-number analysis in the call screening database, enter one of the following values:

If you do not have the database environment set with all the required data populated, set this value to false (default).

If you have the database and want the system to access it, set this value to true.

Configuring CDR File Output

To configure the CDR file output, modify the parameters shown in Table 1-3 in the Data Dumper and Engine sections of the XECfgParm.dat file.

Table 1-3 Call Detail Record File Output Parameters 

Parameter
Modification

engine.CDRencodingFormat

To specify the CDR file encoding format, enter one of the following values:

AnsiCDB—North American (default)

ItuCDB—European

engine.CDRmessageTypes

To specify which CDBs (statistics taken at various points in a call) are recorded during a call, enter one of the following sets of values (each number represents a point in a call):

1010, 1020, 1030, 1040, 1050, 1060, 1070, 1080—Use this set of values if your CDR files are to be read by a measurement server or another CDR reader.

1060, 1110—Use this set of values if the end-of-call record is desired.

1071—Use this set of values for BAMS measurements.

engine.CDRtimeStamp

To specify the CDR file time-stamp unit, enter one of the following values:

S—Seconds (default).

M—Milliseconds; use this parameter if your configuration uses TCAP or BAMS.

Note If you are using BAMS or 1110 in the engine.CDRmessageTypes parameter (for TCAP), you must specify milliseconds (M) for the CDRtimeStamp value.

cdrDmpr.openCDR

To indicate whether the standard data dumper writes out CDR files, enter one of the following values:

true—Standard data dumper opens a CDR file and logs CDBs.

false—Standard data dumper does not open a CDR file and does not log CDBs.

cdrDmpr.seqFile

Indicate the location of the file for storing or retrieving the CDR sequence number (range is 1 to 999999).

Default: ../var/.cdr.seq


CDE Descriptions

This section describes the current CDB CDEs. The CDEs are divided into three tables (ANSI, ITU, and generic format). The ANSI-formatted fields (typically used in North American networks) are based on ANSI T1.113.1995. The ITU-formatted fields (typically used in European networks) are based on ITU-Q.763.

The generic format provides common CDEs with one encoding scheme. The generic format is used to handle different protocol variants. Table 1-4 defines all the fields that can exist in any given CDB and gives the associated tag and type for each one.


Note In Table 1-4, Y = Yes, the field exists in the CDB; N = No, the field does not exist in the CDB.

Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch Billing Interfaces

There are two billing interfaces provided by the Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch. They are

File Transfer Protocol (FTP) interface

Generic interface

FTP and SFTP Support

The Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch (Release 9.7 and later) and BAMS 3.30 run on Solaris 10, which supports both file transfer protocol (FTP) and Secure FTP (SFTP). You can use FTP or SFTP to transfer CDR files from the spool directory in order to use them on a separate system, such as a mediation or data collection system. For security purposes, you can restrict FTP access by establishing user privileges.

The data collection and mediation systems can use this interface by periodically downloading the files. Each CDR file provides a sequence number and a timestamp for the creation of the file. The data collection system or the mediation system can use this information to determine the file to download.

The Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch has several configuration parameters to write the CDR file. The following are the configuration parameters:

The prefix in the file name (CDR_YYYYMMDDHHMMSS_SeqNo), where SeqNo is a sequence number in the format (000001 to 999999)

Spool directory

Frequent creation of the file

The purpose of the sequence number is to provide an audit capability to the data collection system or mediation software. The sequence number is unique and ranges from 1 to 999999. If the Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch fails or restarts, it uses the next sequence number (the last sequence number + 1). When the sequence number reaches 999999, the sequence restarts at 1.

Generic Interface

The Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch defines a generic or flexible billing interface. This is an internal interface between the call processing module and the CDR dumper in the Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch. You cannot modify this interface.

This interface provides a CDB data stream for the CDR dumper. The generic interface is based on the flexible CDB record layout. The record layout uses a TLV encoding mechanism. The detail messages (that is, CDBs) are explained later in this document.

Redundant Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch Configuration

In a redundant Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch configuration, the active Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch creates checkpoint records that synchronize it with the standby Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch. The standby Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch creates call objects with appropriate states to allow continued call processing after switchover occurs. When the standby Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch becomes active, it starts synchronizing with end offices (circuit audit). Each Cisco 2600 buffers messages while failover occurs.

Billing under a redundant configuration is basically limited to the following: The active Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch generates the CDBs, and the standby Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch does not. When failover occurs, the now active Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch generates the CDBs.

If a call was stable during the failover, the newly active Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch eventually generates an end-of-call CDB (Release CDB or possibly an Interrupted CDB) for each call. The CDBs generated by the previous standby Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch include the same unique call IDs. The mediation software requires correlating the CDB records from both systems. For both systems to be properly correlated, the two Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch clocks must be synchronized with each other.

Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch Clock Synchronization

The Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch uses Network Time Protocol (NTP) to synchronize its time to another server or time source. For example, the NTP provides client accuracy that is typically within 1 millisecond on LANs and up to a few tenths of a second on WANs relative to a primary server synchronized to UTC by a Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver. To achieve high accuracy and reliability, typical NTP configurations use multiple redundant servers and diverse network paths. Some configurations include cryptographic authentication to prevent accidents or malicious protocol attacks.


Note RFC 1305 provides information on the NTP architecture, protocol, and algorithm.


Detailed CDB Descriptions

This section contains the distinct record layouts for the CDBs. Because each type of CDB is for a different part of a call, the Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch provides the related CDEs that are needed.

The CDE includes only fields that have values. The layout varies based on the Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch configuration. For example, if the Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch is configured with a protocol that does not support a specific CDE, the CDB record does not include that particular CDE.

The following CDB records are listed in this section:

Answered CDB Record (Tag: 1010/Release 5 and Later)

Deselected Outgoing Circuit CDB Record (Tag: 1020/Release 5 and Later)

Aborted Attempt CDB Record (Tag: 1030/Release 5 and Later)

Release CDB Record (Tag: 1040/Release 5 and Later)

SS7 CIC Audit CDB Record (Tag: 1071/Release 9 and Later)

External Access CDB (Tag: 1080/Release 7 and Later)

File Header CDB (Tag: 1090/Release 7 and Later)

Slave End-of-Call CDB Record (Tag: 1210/Release 9.6 and Later)

Slave Long Duration Call CDB Record (Tag: 1260/Release 9.6 and Later)

Answered CDB Record (Tag: 1010/Release 5 and Later)

Table 1-5 lists data about the answered message. This CDB is generated when a call went through and was answered (when the Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch received an ANM/Answered message).

Interrupted CDB Record (Tag: 1050/Release 5 and Later)

Table 1-9 lists data about the interrupted CDB. CDB Tag 1050 is created when a call is terminated without a Release message. This happens, for example, in hot standby configuration with dual Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitches; when failover occurs and the newly active Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch discovers that a call is no longer active, it terminates the call without a Release message. (The release message probably arrived and was lost during the failover window.)

On-Going (Call) CDB Record (Tag: 1060/Release 5 and Later)

The On-going Call CDB (or Long-Call CDB) indicates that a call is still active after the expiration of the time span defined in the XECfgParm.dat parameter *.LongCallTime. This CDB is generated again each time the period defined in *.LongCallTime elapses while the call is active. For example, if *.LongCallTime is set to its default value, 21600000 ms, which is equal to 6 hours, a 1060 CDB is generated every 6 hours until the call is terminated.


Note When the Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch is configured to create only the 1110 CDB (End-of-Call Summary) and this CDB, all of the relevant 1060 tags are present and populated. This is because the 1060 CDB might be the first CDB that is written for a call, if the call has been active for the long-call period. In this case, the 1060 CDB contains the full set of populated tags. However, when the Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch is configured to generate event-based CDBs (such as 1010, 1020, 1030, 1040, 1050, 1060, 1070, and 1080) the 1060 CDB can contain only a subset of tags: 5000, 4000-4002, 4213, and 4214. This occurs because the other event-based CDBs contain the tag information, since they are associated with specific events. Therefore, in this instance the 1060 CDB does not contain this redundant data, because that would be outside the primary purpose of this CDB.


Table 1-10 lists data about the ongoing (Call) CDB.


Note In Release 7 and later, the long duration includes more fields than it does in Release 5. The extra fields are marked Release 7 and later.

Table 1-12 lists data about the SS7 CIC audit record CDB type. This CDB is used to record changes to:

The number of circuits defined for a trunk group when the Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch is configured in Call Control mode

The number of circuits defined in a signaling service when the Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch is configured in Signaling mode

This CDB is modeled after the 1070 CDB but does not contain independent CIC statuses, just total counts of CICs defined and unavailable. It is triggered by provisioning changes to the number of circuits in a trunk group (Call Control) or signaling service (Signaling).

Note You can configure CDB 1071 in XECfgParm.dat by adding it in engine.CDRmessageType. However, if CDB 1110 is configured, CDB 1071 is suppressed.


Once configured in XECfgParm.dat, CDB 1071 is generated for the following conditions:

When the MML command sta-aud-cic is used to generate the current CIC availability information on each configured ISUP trunk group or signaling service.

When a provisioning change (add or delete) is made in the number of circuits.

When a CIC service state or block state change occurs. A circuit that is unavailable is either blocked, OOS, or both. A circuit that is blocked and also OOS is not double-counted as two unavailable circuits. Table 1-13 and Table 1-14 show the action taken when there is a service state or block state change.

A blocked state is one of the following states or a combination of these states:

Manual local block

Manual remote block

Auto remote block (hardware failure)

Auto local block

Propagation block (gateway-initiated blocking)

CDB Tag 1071 generation rules:

If CDB Tag 1071 is generated as the result of the sta-aud-cic MML command, it includes the CIC unavailability information per trunk group for switched configuration, or per signaling service for a nailed-up configuration. For the other two scenarios (a provisioning change to the number of circuits, or a CIC service state or block state change), it generates the information only for the trunk groups that are impacted.

CDB Tag 1071 is generated only on the active side.

To generate the CDB Tag 1071 on a trunk group or signaling service level rather than individual CIC level to minimize CPS impact, the Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch uses an internal 10-second timer. 1071 CDB is generated 10 seconds after the initial CIC state change and/or the initial CIC provision change. This delay prevents the flooding of 1071 CDBs if a large number of CICs have blocks or service state changes almost simultaneously.

The sta-aud-cic MML command is rejected for the following conditions:

An attempt is made to run the MML command on the standby side.

CDB Tag 1071 is not configured in the XECfgParm.dat file.

A circuit that has COT failure and has COT retest in progress is not counted as unavailable.

External Access CDB (Tag: 1080/Release 7 and Later)

Table 1-15 lists data about the external access CDB type. CDB Tag 1080 is generated whenever a query is sent to an SCP (or to some other external device or database).

End of the Call CDB (Tag: 1110/Release 7 and Later)

When the Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch software is configured to generate one CDB per call, it generates a CDB that includes basic billing information. The CDB is generated at the end of the call when

A call is ended with a Release CDB

An attempted call did not progress to Setup status, that is, a call that did not get answered (Aborted Attempted CDB for example)

This End of Call CDB consists of the values listed in Table 1-18.

Table 1-19 lists data about the Slave End-of-Call CDB type. The Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch generates this CDB at the end of the call for a noncontrolling half-call instance. Only end-of-call summary style CDBs are issued for slave half-call instances, and the appropriate information is check-pointed to ensure the data is successfully written if a switchover occurs. This CDB is disabled by default on your Cisco PGW 2200.


Note If you do enable this CDB and your network includes a Cisco BAMS, you must provision the Cisco BAMS to ignore this CDB.
