Configuring an Accounting Policy
Before an accounting policy can be created a target log file must be created to collect the
accounting records. The files are stored in system memory of compact flash (cf1: or cf2:) in a
compressed (tar) XML format and can be retrieved using FTP or SCP. See Configuring an Event
Log on page 422 and Configuring a File ID on page 424.
Accounting policies must be configured in the config>log context before they can be applied to a
service SAP or service interface, or applied to a network port.
The default accounting policy statement cannot be applied to LDP nor RSVP statistics collection
records.
An accounting policy must define a record type and collection interval. Only one record type can
be configured per accounting policy.
When creating accounting policies, one service accounting policy and one network accounting
policy can be defined as default. If statistics collection is enabled on a SAP or network port and no
accounting policy is applied, then the respective default policy is used. If no default policy is
defined, then no statistics are collected unless a specifically defined accounting policy is applied.
Use the following CLI syntax to configure an accounting policy:
CLI Syntax: config>log
accounting-policy acct-policy-id interval minutes
description description-string
default
record record-name
to file log-file-id
no shutdown
The following displays a accounting policy configuration example:
A:ALA-12>config>log# info
----------------------------------------------
accounting-policy 4

record complete-service-ingress-egress
default
to file 1
exit
accounting-policy 5

record service-ingress-packets
to file 3
exit
