The device can send accounting data of SIP calls as call detail records (CDR) to a RADIUS
Accounting server. The device can send the accounting messages to the RADIUS server
upon call release, call connection and release, or call setup and release. For a list of the
CDR attributes, see the table following the procedure below.
To configure RADIUS accounting:
1. Open the RADIUS Parameters page (Configuration tab > VoIP menu > SIP
Definitions > RADIUS Parameters Settings).

3. Configure the remaining parameters as required. For a description of these
parameters, see ''RADIUS Parameters'' on page 1027.
4. Click Submit.
5. For your settings to take effect, reset the device with a flash burn.
