Configuring your SMDR output
Below you will find instructions on how to configure the SMDR output for your Alcatel OmniPCX Office phone system.
Alcatel-Lucent OmniPCX Office Communication Server supports two types of call metering:
- V24 metering supports V24 printing for all call metering tickets.
- IP metering supports IP printing for call metering tickets originating from a 3rd party application (Business or Hotel) via an IP connection.
