Important:
The system’s RADIUS accounting parameters must be configured prior to using either of the
protocols for accounting. Refer to the
radius
commands in the Context Configuration Mode Commands and the AAA
Server Group Configuration Mode Commands chapters.
no-early-pdus
Configures the GGSN to discard user traffic once the buffer is full until the RADIUS server has returned a
response to the GGSN's accounting START request per 3GPP standards.
Configures the GGSN to delay PDUs from/to MS until the RADIUS server returns a response to the GGSN's
accounting START request as per 3GPP standards. The GGSN buffers up to two PDUs per call. Additional
PDUs disable the queuing. On receiving the Accounting response message, the GGSN forwards all the
subsequent PDUs for that call.

Important:
For StarOS 10.0 and earlier releases, the system buffers up to four PDUs and queues or discards the
remaining PDUs.
Important:
For StarOS 11.0 and later releases, the system is configured so that none of the PDUs are discarded.
no-interims
Disables the generation of RADIUS interims per APN.
When configured, RADIUS interim updates for this APN will not be sent, regardless of what is configured in
the context that is used for RADIUS accounting.
When configured, RADIUS interim updates for this APN will not be sent, regardless of what is configured in
the context that is used for RADIUS accounting.
Important:
Different CLI commands are used to disable RADIUS interims for RADIUS accounting and
mediation accounting. To disable RADIUS interims for RADIUS accounting, use the following command:
accounting-mode radius no-interims
. To disable RADIUS interims for mediation accounting, use the following
command:
mediation-device context-name context_name no-interims
.
Usage
This command specifies which protocol, if any, will be used to provide accounting for PDP contexts
accessing the APN profile.
When the GTPP protocol is used, accounting messages are sent to the charging gateways (CGs) over the Ga
interface. The Ga interface and GTPP functionality are typically configured within the system’s source
context. As specified by the standards, a CDR is not generated when a session starts - CDRs are generated
according to the interim triggers (configured using the cc command in the GGSN service configuration mode)
and a CDR is generated when the session ends. For interim accounting, STOP/START pairs are sent based on
configured triggers.
GTPP version 2 is always used. However, if version 2 is not supported by the CGF, the system reverts to
using GTPP version 1. All subsequent CDRs are always fully-qualified partial CDRs. All CDR fields are R4.

If the
radius
option is used, RADIUS protocol is used as configured in the Context Configuration mode or
the AAA Server Group Configuration mode.
If the RADIUS protocol is used, accounting messages can be sent over a AAA interface or the Gi to the
RADIUS server. The AAA or Gi interface(s) and RADIUS functionality are typically configured with the
system’s destination context along with the APN. RADIUS accounting begins immediately after an IP
address is allocated for the MS. Interim accounting can be configured using the
