This chapter describes how to configure connection settings for all recorder servers in the Recorders tab.

Recorders are GQM modules that process audio traffic according to requirements from the Core module received through the AMQP broker. There are two types of recording services:

  • Passive Recorder (RS) - Passively sniffs the server's network interface for udp packets and processes them according to CORE requests. The service is used in the following recording methods:
    • Avaya Active Recording - Although originally designed for use with SPAN based recording, we extended it's role for use with Avaya active recording
    • Cisco Passive Recording
    • Genesys Passive Recording
  • Active Recorder (or SPANless Recorder - SLR) -  is connected to the softswitch, handles SIP requests and the RTP traffic.
    • Cisco Active Recording
    • Genesys Active Recording
