Enabling system accounting messages
You can configure WSS Software to send an Accounting-On message (Acct-Status-Type = 7) to the RADIUS
server when the WSS starts, and an Accounting-Off message (Acct-Status-Type = 8) to the RADIUS server
when the WSS is administratively shut down. To do this, use the following command:
server when the WSS starts, and an Accounting-Off message (Acct-Status-Type = 8) to the RADIUS server
when the WSS is administratively shut down. To do this, use the following command:
set accounting system method1 [method2] [method3] [method4]
For example, the following command causes Accounting-On and Accounting-Off messages to be sent to
RADIUS server group shorebirds:
RADIUS server group shorebirds:
WSS# set accounting system shorebirds
success: change accepted.
success: change accepted.
Note that local is not a valid method for this command.
When you enter this command, an Accounting-On message is generated and sent to the specified server or
server group. Subsequent Accounting-On messages are generated each time the WSS starts. When the WSS is
administratively shut down, an Accounting-Off message is generated.
server group. Subsequent Accounting-On messages are generated each time the WSS starts. When the WSS is
administratively shut down, an Accounting-Off message is generated.
Accounting-Off messages are sent only when the WSS is administratively shut down, not when a critical
failure causes the WSS to reset. The WSS does not wait for a RADIUS server to acknowledge the
Accounting-Off message; the switch makes one attempt to send the Accounting-Off message, then shuts
down.
