Hi, you don't need at al Radius to have CDRTool running:

- MediaProxy does accounting (to store media info, to make fix calls with no 
BYE after RTP end...). Media proxy can store data via MySQL or via Radius.

- In case of OpenSer, CDRTool expects to get CDR data from the "radacct" table 
so OpenSer should fill that table using Radius (as "acc" module does when 
using Radius) but you can also use "acc" DB and storing data into radacct 
table by configuring "acc,db-extra" parameters.

- In fact, CDRTool can work with Asterisk CDR table, and of course Asterisk 
has not CDR Radius support at all.

In conclusion, CDRTool just need to load CDR data from a DB table (radacct 
table, asteriskcdr table, custom table...).

Best regards.
