Supported output formats
The Offline Mediation Controller Wireless service solution supports the following distribution cartridge (DC) output formats for the GGSN/SGSN node chain:
-
ASCII Delimited
-
IPDR
-
XML
-
3GPP 32.015 ASN.1
The section that follows provides some general information about the Wireless DC output formats.
Descriptions
The available Wireless distribution cartridge (DC) output file formats include:
ASCII Delimited
This file contains strings of ASCII data. Standard ASCII delimited files contain data separated by a delimiter — either a comma or a semi-colon. The general format is a header line followed by one or more lines of data. The header line is a string of parameter names separated by a delimiter. The data lines that follow the header line have a one-to-one order association with the parameter names in the header line.
IPDR
This file is in XML format.
XML
This file is in XML format. The general format of this file is a group of data lines for each count. Each data line contains an attribute tag, the associated value, and an ending tag.
3GPP 32.015 ASN.1
This file contains syntax and basic encoding rules for messages that are sent and received in the network. The syntax rules describe the message content by data type and content sequence or structure. The encoding rules describe how each data item is encoded.
