How to access IP Office for Basic SMDR

The purpose of this document is to provide guidelines for configuring IP Office and a PC to be able to receive basic SMDR information that can be accessed using an application that can view / open a .CSV File.

By default, IP Office provides the ability to retrieve RAW SMDR information. This document will explain how to use an open source application called NCAT to listen for SMDR transmissions from the IP Office and write the records to a .CSV file format.
