Retrieving Call Detail Records from Asterisk using SNMP

Abstract

Several SNMP agents could be integrated by IETF’s AgentX protocol which separates the communication with SNMP manager in two parts: AgentX between sub-agents and master agent, and SNMP between master agent and manager. The paper extends the SNMP software agent of the IP-based PBX Asterisk. The management information related to Application Layer (calls and charging) are collected in .log files, parsered and then stored into .xml files. Being an alternative to legacy commercial implementations, this solution has the advantage of using the SNMP, a generalized non-proprietary management protocol. This could be a step forward towards an integrated management where the access, distribution and core networks, together with applications are using the same mechanism which will not be external anymore as it is nowadays.
