RADIUS security server in the form of accounting records. Each accounting record is comprised of
AV pairs and is stored on the access control server. The data can be analyzed for network
management, client billing, and/or auditing. Accounting methods must be defined through AAA.
When AAA accounting is activated, it’s applied equally to all interfaces on the access servers.
To define unique WLAN AAA configurations:
1. Select Configuration > Network > AAA Policy to display existing AAA policies.
The Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting (AAA) screen lists those AAA policies
created thus far. Any of these policies can be selected and applied.

Accounting Packet Type Displays the accounting type set for the AAA policy. Options include:
Start Only - Sends a start accounting notice to initiate user accounting.
Start/Stop - Sends a start accounting notice at the beginning of a process and a stop notice at the end of
a process. The start accounting record is sent in the background. The requested process begins
regardless of whether the start accounting notice is received by the accounting server.
Request Interval Lists each AAA policy’s interval used to send a RADIUS accounting request to the RADIUS server.
NAC Policy Lists the name Network Access Control (NAC) filter used to either include or exclude clients from access.
Server Pooling Mode The server pooling mode controls how requests are transmitted across RADIUS servers. Selecting Failover
results in working down the list of servers if a server is unresponsive or unavailable. Load Balanced uses
all available servers transmitting requests in round robin.
