RADIUS Accounting Settings
The Accounting feature of the Switch uses a remote RADIUS server to collect information regarding events occurring
on the Switch. The following is a list of information that will be sent to the RADIUS server when an event triggers the
Switch to send these informational packets.
• Account Session ID
• Account Status Type
• Account Terminate Cause
• Account Authentication
• Account Delay Time
• Account Session Time
• Username
• Service Type
• NAS IP Address
• NAS Identifier
• Calling Station ID
There are three types of Accounting that can be enabled on the Switch.
• Network – When enabled, the Switch will send informational packets to a remote RADIUS server when
network events occur on the Switch.
• Shell – When enabled, the Switch will send informational packets to a remote RADIUS server when a user
either logs in, logs out or times out on the Switch, using the console, Telnet, or SSH.
• System - When enabled, the Switch will send informational packets to a remote RADIUS server when system
events occur on the Switch, such as a system reset or system boot.
Remember, this feature will not work properly unless a RADIUS Server has first been configured. This RADIUS server
will format, store and manage the information collected here.
