[OpenSIPS-Users] Dialog Module - topology_hiding

Thanks Vlad.

I'm using Dialog's CDR auto generation:

modparam("acc", "cdr_flag", 3)

The local_route acc_db_request insert 2 lines into DB - one for
"downstream" and another for "upstream" , however the dialog specific AVPs
usually inserted into the DB is lacking, and more importantly, the duration
and setup time show as "0". Is there a way to force auto generation of CDR
upon sending BYE after timeout?

Thanks,

Peter
