MAX 6000/3000 Network Configuration Guide
Configuring Individual WAN Connections
The Connection profile
Accounting Options
The Ethernet > Connections > Connection profile > Accounting Options parameters that define 
features for the accounting server and for accounting requests:
Parameter
Description
Bill #
Specifies a telephone number to be used for billing purposes. If a 
number is specified, it is used either as a billing suffix or the calling- 
party number. For robbed-bit lines, the MAX unit uses the billing 
number as a suffix appended to each telephone number it dials for the 
call. 
Call-by-Call
In a T1 Line profile, specifies the call-by-call signaling value to set for 
routing calls from a local device through the unit to the network. When 
it is set in another profile, this parameter specifies the PRI service to 
use when placing a call using that profile. The Call-by-Call setting in 
the Dial Plan profile overrides the Call-by-Call setting in the call and 
Connection profiles.
Transit #
Specifies a string for use in the transit network IE for PRI calling when 
using an Interexchange Carrier (IEC). The default (null) causes the 
unit to use any available IEC for long-distance calls.
Dialout OK
Specifies whether or not the Connection profile can be used to dial out 
using one of the unit’s digital modems.
NAS Port Type
Determines the type of calls that can be received—analog, digital or 
any.
Parameter
Specifies
Acct Type
Whether or not to use a connection-specific accounting server for 
accounting related to this link. The MAX unit logs information to the 
accounting server specified in the Ethernet profile, the Connection 
profile, or both.
Acct Host
IP address of a connection-specific accounting server to use for 
information related to this link.
Acct Port
User Datagram Protocol (UDP) port number that the MAX unit uses in 
accounting requests. This parameter applies in a Connection profile 
only if the Acct Type parameter specifies that connection-specific 
accounting information will be used.
Acct Timeout
Amount of time the unit waits for a response to a RADIUS accounting 
request. You can set this parameter globally and for each connection.
Acct Key
RADIUS or TACACS+ shared secret. A shared secret acts like a 
password between the unit and the accounting server. This parameter 
applies in a Connection profile only if the Acct Type parameter 
specifies that connection-specific accounting information will be used.
