Target Recording

Revision as of 09:16, 11 August 2016 by Luc Morissette (talk | contribs) (Added links to 2.8 and 2.9)

Tmedia units, running Toolpack software and the Gateway application, permit the recording of calls.

Calls are recorded as ".wav" files on the Tmedia unit's drive.

WARNING: For this reason, target recording is recommend for troubleshooting only and should be disabled when it is not needed. In addition, recording a large amount of calls simultaneously will have an impact on the system's performance.


Use cases

Target recording is useful in a variety of applications:

  • Voice/line quality control
  • FAX quality analysis
  • Lawful interception
  • Debugging
  • Test calls


Software requirements

  • Toolpack software version 2.6 or higher
  • tbstreamserver application configured to be running (it's not running by default)
  • Gateway application (standard with Toolpack unless explicitly replaced by custom call handling application)


Hardware requirements

  • Tmedia unit with DSP resources


Recording modes

Recording calls can be achieved using 1 of 2 methods:

Web Portal

This mode should be used for troubleshooting only.

It is easy to use but not flexible.

This mode is limited to record based on the following parameters:

  • Recorded files options:
    • Record each leg of a call into it's own file
    • Record an audio mix of both legs of a call to a single file (only available with Toolpack 2.7 and up only)
  • Available filtering parameters:
    • By calling number
    • By called number
    • By incoming NAP
    • By outgoing NAP


Routing script

This mode can insert recording into any existing routing script.

It is extremely flexible but requires users to modify their routing scripts.

  • Recorded files options:
    • Record each leg of a call into it's own file
    • Record an audio mix of both legs of a call to a single file (only available with Toolpack 2.7 and up only)
  • Available filtering parameters:
    • Any call parameters
    • Any route parameters
    • Any routing scripts parameters
