APN Configuration Mode Commands
accounting-mode ▀
Command Line Interface Reference, StarOS Release 18 ▄
1291
none
Disables accounting for PDP contexts using this APN.
When accounting mode is set to none, it indicates to the GTP stack at session manager to not generate the
regular GTPP accounting triggers. Default: Disabled.

radius-diameter
Configures the APN to use RADIUS protocol for accounting purposes. Default: Disabled
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.
Important:
The
accounting-mode
CLI command is used only for RADIUS and GTPP accounting. Hence, in
17.0 and later releases, the keyword option “
radius-diameter
” has been replaced with
radius
option, and is
concealed to support backward compatibility.
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
