CG Server
 The Charging Gateway (CG) Server is composed
of dual blade servers and a disk array.

 The SBC13 blade server together with its rear

board provide users with ten network ports,
namely, Debug, Update, Base1, Base2, Fabric1
and Fabric2, while providing four GE NICs on the
rear board.

is selected, then a complete CDR file is generated when the service is
terminated.

CDR Sorting Objects
 CDRs of NEs in the same core network are often
saved in one channel. However, some operators
want to sort CDRs, saving hot charging CDRs or
settlement CDRs to a specific channel. In this
case, CDR sorting objects are required.
 CDR sorting objects include the following:
 CDR construction
 CDR merging
 GTP' input
CDR Construction Pick
 Adding a CDR Construction Pick Group
 Double-click IMS Configuration > CDR Process > CDR Pick > CDR
Construct Pick > Create CDR Construct Pick Group(ADD
IMSCPICKGRP)

 Pick Group ID: The CDR sorting group ID.

 Priority: The priority of the CDR sorting group.
 CDR Channel: The channel number where the sorted CDRs are saved.
