Configuration Parameter Name

Description

Unified Call Recorder \ Media Recorder \ Incoming Connection

User

The username for authenticating the connection between the local Media Recorder and the Recording Directors.

Password

The user password for authenticating the connection between the local Media Recorder and the Recording Directors.

Priority

Defines the priority of the local Media Recorder to provide weighted load balancing among the configured recorders.

Port

The port number used for the Recording Director connections.

Unified Call Recorder \ Media Recorder \ Basic

Media Recorder Enabled

Enables the Media Recorder component in the service. If the server is deployed as a Recording Director, this componentneedto be disabled.

Automatic Gain Control Enabled

The application automatically controls the gain in the audio file to provide more convenient user experience while listening back recordings

Audio Format

The recorder application will use the selected file format and codec option to store the audio/voice conversations.

Video Format

The recorder application will use the selected file format and codec option to store the video conversations.

Bidirectional/Stereo Recording

Enables creation of dual channel audio files (one channel for calling party, one channel for called party). Certain file format and codec options do not support stereo recording.

Call Timeout (seconds)

Defines the call timeout value in seconds, which is used to terminate the call recording automatically if the last RTP packet is received before this value.

Media Port Range Begin

Defines the beginning of the media port range used by the application to receive RTP streams from the UC platform.

Media Port Range End

Defines the end of the media port range used by the application to receive RTP streams from the UC platform.

Voice Activity Statistics

Enabled silence and talk-over detection.

Unified Call Recorder \ Media Recorder \ Advanced

Database Cache Folder

The path to the database cache folder without the name of the file. Use the

icon to select the folder.

Skip Calls Without Media

When enabled, the system will not create a database record for calls without any media.

Media Format Fallback Enabled

When enabled, the system is able to fall back to raw stream recording if certain codecs are detected toavoiddrasticdecrease in quality.

PCM Mixer Buffer Length (milliseconds)

Length of the mixer buffer in milliseconds.

RTP Stream Reorder Buffer Length (packets)

Size of the RTP packet capture/receiver buffer in packets used for RTP packet reordering.

Write XML Metadata

Enables XML-based CDR/metadata file generation, written next to the media files. These files can be used later if the database crashes and cannot be recovered. These files are also used for various integration options.

SSL/TLS Certificate

Path to the SSL/TLS certificate file used for the encryption of the communication between the Media Recorder and the Recording Director components. When the server roles are co-located, both components use the same configuration setting.

SSL/TLS Key

Path to the SSL/TLS key file.

SSL/TLS Key Password

Password for the SSL/TLS key.

Unified Call Recorder \ Media Recorder \ JTAPI Integration

Cisco JTAPI Integration Enabled

Enables the integration with the Cisco JTAPI Service component.

Cisco JTAPI Services

The IP address or hostname of the Recording Director servers where the Cisco JTAPI Service is enabled. Multiple addresses can be configured.

Unified Call Recorder \ Media Recorder \ Overload Thresholds

Concurrent Calls

Limitation on the maximum number of calls recorded by the server. When the threshold is reached, the system will notify the Recording Director component to stop assigning calls to the server.

CPU (%)

Limitation on the maximum CPU load (%) on the server. When the threshold is reached, the system will notify the Recording Director component to stop assigning calls to the server.

Network (%)

Limitation on the maximum network load (%) on the server. When the threshold is reached, the system will notify the Recording Director component to stop assigning calls to the server.

Disk Space (%)

Limitation on the minimum free disk space (%) on the server. When the threshold is reached, the system will notify the Recording Director component to stop assigning calls to the server.

Disk Space (mbyte)

Limitation on the minimum free disk space in megabytes on the server. When the threshold is reached, the system will notify the Recording Director component to stop assigning calls to the server.

Internal Domain, Numbers Pattern

Regular expression to describe the internal numbers/domains in the organization. The system uses the setting to identify the direction of the recorded conversation (internal, outgoing, incoming, external).

SIP URI Modification

The following valid value apply:

  • Do not modify SIP addresses - The system will not modify the SIP URIs and will insert the URIs as they appear in the SIP signaling messages to the database.

  • Remove domain part - The system will remove the domain part from all SIP URIs. E.g. john.doe@contoso.com -> john.doe

  • Remove domain part for numbers only - The system will remove the domain part for SIP URIs containing a phone number only. Other SIP URIs will not be updated. E.g. +1234778899@contoso.com -> +1234778899
