5.4 Accounting Logs
This section contains the following topics:
• Accounting Records
• Accounting Files
• Design Considerations
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 on a compact
flash (cf3: on all platforms; also cf1: or cf2: on the 7705 SAR-18) in a compressed
(tar) XML format and can be retrieved using FTP or SCP.
5.4.1 Accounting Records
An accounting policy must define a record name and collection interval. Only one
record name can be configured per accounting policy. Also, a record name can only
be used in one accounting policy.
Table 33 lists the record name, sub-record types, and default collection period for
service and network accounting policies.
