4Training objective
- Upon completing this module, you will know
- Call Accounting Node concepts and licensing
requirements - How to install the Call Accounting Node software
and set up a remote site server - How to integrate Mitel OPS Manger with Call
Accounting
5What is Call Accounting Node?
- Call Accounting Node consists of
- A Call Accounting Node license
- Enables a company to collect call costing data
from co-located or geographically dispersed
telephone systems beyond the single telephone
system collection license included in Call
Accounting - Required for each additional media server you
want to cost, whether you collect telephone
system data using OPS Manager, Call Accounting
Node software, or stream the data over TCP/IP
from the remote site to the Enterprise Server
directly
6What is Call Accounting Node?
- Call Accounting Node consists of
- Call Accounting Node software
- You can install on a server that is remote from
the Enterprise Server, to buffer data collection
(recommended) - When you install the software at remote sites you
do not require SQL, IIS, or other server support
applications at your remote sites. This results
in significant cost savings - In addition, the redundant data collection
provides added security in case of network outages
7Call Accounting Node versus Enterprise Server
- The Call Accounting Node collector collects raw
data from a single media server at the remote
site. The Call Accounting Node streams this data
to the Enterprise Server - The Enterprise Server consists of the prairieFyre
Collector Service and the Enterprise Service. The
prairieFyre Collector Service collects raw data
from all of the (both local and branch office)
media servers - The Enterprise Service summarizes the raw data,
stores it on the SQL Server, and produces
enterprise-wide data for reporting
8What is the prairieFyre Collector Service?
- prairieFyre Collector Service is located on the
same computer as the Enterprise Server - It collects raw data from an infinite number of
media servers - The prairieFyre Collector Service, which resides
at the Enterprise Server site, gathers
information from your remote site server (Call
Accounting Node server) and stores it as raw
data. The Enterprise Service, which also resides
on the Enterprise Server, summarizes and then
stores the data (SQL)

10Call Accounting Node licenses
- Companies must obtain Call Accounting Nodes if
they - Have remote telephone systems collecting SMDR
data - Want reporting from those additional telephone
systems - The Call Accounting Node software at remote
locations communicates with the Enterprise Server
at the corporate office across the company's
LAN/WAN and intranet via TCP-IP. Managers can
view reports on an enterprise-wide basis
11Call Accounting Node software functionality
- Call Accounting Node software
- Collects SMDR data from single or co-located
telephone systems - Stores SMDR data to the local Call Accounting
Node server - Streams SMDR data to the Enterprise Server for
enterprise-wide reports - Automatically synchronizes and stores all call
costing statistics at the Enterprise Server for
accurate, multi-site, historical reporting - Uses a telephone system neutral collection
process that allows you to collect and report on
sites with different Mitel telephone systems
