Usage
Use this command to configure AAA functionality at the APN level.
Instead of having a single list of servers per context, this feature configures multiple server groups within a
context and applies individual server group for APNs in that context. Each server group consists of a list of
AAA servers for each AAA function (accounting, authentication, charging, etc.).
The AAA secondary server group supports the RADIUS Fire-and-Forget feature in conjunction with GGSN
for secondary accounting (with different RADIUS accounting group configuration) to the RADIUS servers
without expecting acknowledgement from the server, in addition to standard RADIUS accounting. This
secondary accounting will be an exact copy of all the standard RADIUS accounting message (RADIUS Start
/ Interim / Stop) sent to the standard AAA RADIUS server.
If the same AAA group is configured with both the

If the same AAA group is configured with both the
aaa group aaa_group_name
and the
aaa
secondary-group aaa_group_name
commands, then this configuration will have no effect and secondary
accounting will not happen.
The AAA secondary server group configuration takes effect only when used with APN accounting-mode set
to radius-diameter (or) with mediation-acct enabled. The RADIUS accounting triggers for both standard
RADIUS accounting and secondary accounting will be taken from the AAA group configured with the
The AAA secondary server group configuration takes effect only when used with APN accounting-mode set
to radius-diameter (or) with mediation-acct enabled. The RADIUS accounting triggers for both standard
RADIUS accounting and secondary accounting will be taken from the AAA group configured with the
aaa
group aaa_group_name
command. On the fly change of this configuration is not supported. Any change to
the configuration will have effect only for new calls.
Example
The following command applies the AAA server group
star1
to an APN within the specific context:
