The Avaya Norstar requires a CLI2 box. If you don't have one you should speak to your system maintainer to purchase one. Avaya Norstar PBX sends SMDR information via a serial connection.
You will need to directly connect a serial cable from the CLI2 box to the PC that NetPBX is installed and running on.
