You can select any number of billing methods per port.
A specific billing plan can be assigned to a port or all the existing billing plans
defined on the NSE can be enabled on the port. Please select the appropriate
option from the dropdown list for Billing Plan(s) available on port.
Please note that while it is possible to set the value of a per-port configuration
parameter independently of the value of the corresponding global parameter, the
feature itself is disabled for a port unless both the per-port and global parameters
are set to enabled. Thus:
z RADIUS authentication for a port is enabled only if the RADIUS Client is
globally enabled AND the per-port enable RADIUS billing parameter is set.
z Credit card billing for a port is enabled only if Credit Card Services is
globally enabled AND the per-port enable Credit Card billing parameter is
set.
All alpha characters (used for locations and descriptions) are case-
sensitive.
