DESCRIPTION
The file etc/xferfaxlog contains information about inbound and outbound activities. The file contains one line per inbound or outbound call (except for facsimile documents retrieved by polling in which case multiple entries may be present for a single call). If the modem config setting LogCalls is set to true, then the file also contains one line per received call. Lines are fixed-format, tab-separated ASCII strings.Each record of a facsimile transmission is of the form:
date SEND commid modem jobid jobtag sender ``dest-number'' ``CSI'' params #pages jobtime conntime ``reason'' <null> <null> <null> ``owner'' ``dcs''
A facsimile reception record is of the form:
date RECV commid modem fax.tif <null> fax ``local-number'' ``TSI'' params #pages jobtime conntime ``reason'' ``CallID1'' ``CallID2'' ``CallID3...CallIDn'' <null> ``dcs''
Each inbound call record is of the form:
date CALL commid modem <null> <null> fax ``local-number'' <null> 0 0 jobtime conntime ``reason'' ``CallID1'' ``CallID2'' ``CallID3..CallIDn'' <null> ``dcs''
Each facsimile document retrieved by polling has a record of the form:
date POLL commid modem jobid jobtag sender ``dest-number'' ``TSI'' params #pages jobtime conntime ``reason'' <null> <null> <null>
An alphanumeric pager request has a record of the form:
date PAGE commid modem jobid jobtag sender ``dest-number'' ``<null>'' 0 0 jobtime conntime ``reason'' <null> <null> ``owner''
The following describes the fields in the above records:
- date
- The date and time of the transaction in the format MM/DD/YY HH:MM, where MM is the numeric month, DD the numeric day, YY the last two digits of the year, and HH:MM is the time in 24-hour format.
- commid
- The communication identifier for the call.
- modem
- The device identifier for the modem that was used to do the send or receive.
- jobid
- The job number for outbound calls.
- jobtag
- The client-specified job tag for outbound calls.
- fax.tif
- The associated recvq fax TIFF file for the event.
- sender
- The sender/receiver's electronic mailing address (facsimile receptions are always attributed to the ``fax'' user).
- dest-number
- The phone number dialed for outgoing calls.
- TSI
- The Transmitter Subscriber Identification string (as received) for incoming calls.
- CSI
- The Caller Subscriber Identification string of the remote machine (as reported) for outgoing calls.
- local-number
- The local phone number on which the data was received.
- params
- The negotiated facsimile session parameters used for transferring data encoded as described below.
- #pages
- The total number of pages transferred.
- jobtime
- The duration of the session; in the format HH:MM:SS. This time includes setup overhead and any time spent cleaning up after a call.
- conntime
- The time spent on the phone; in the format HH:MM:SS. This should be the time used by the PTT to calculate usage charges.
- reason
- A string that indicates if any problem occurred during the session.
- CIDName
- The received CIDName value for the session.
- CIDNumber
- The received CIDNumber value for the session.
- owner
- The login name of the job owner.
- dcs
- The T.30 DCS string that was used in the facsimile communication.
Note that fields may have embedded blanks. Session parameters are encoded as a decimal number that contains a packed set of Class 2 session parameter values. The format is: 2 bits for vertical resolution, 3 bits for signalling rate, 3 bits for page width, 2 bits for page length, 2 bits for data format, 1 bit for ECM use, 1 bit of BF use, and 3 bits for the min scanline time. The page counts are always integral numbers. Partial pages that are to be retransmitted are not included in the page count.
The simple ASCII format was designed to be easy to process with programs like awk(1).
