3 System Administration

The initial configuration of the Oracle Enterprise Communications Broker (Communications Broker) establishes system operations, which you configure before configuring SIP operations with the Service Provisioning controls. The Communications Broker GUI displays controls for establishing the system operations under System Administration on the Configuration page. Use the controls to specify how to manage the system.

The following information provides high-level descriptions of the System Administration controls used to configure system operation.

  • Accounting—Configure connections to RADIUS servers to collect Call Detail Records (CDR) generated by the system.
