CHAPTER 40
Configuring Accounting
The AAA Accounting feature allows the services that users are accessing and the amount of network resources
that users are consuming to be tracked. When AAA Accounting is enabled, the network access server reports
user activity to the TACACS+ or RADIUS security server (depending on which security method is
implemented) in the form of accounting records. Each accounting record contains accounting attribute-value
(AV) pairs and is stored on the security server. This data can then be analyzed for network management,
client billing, and auditing.
