User Guidelines
•

This command enables the recording of 802.1x sessions.

•

If accounting is activated, the device sends a Start/Stop message to a RADIUS server when a user

logs in/logs out to the network, respectively. The software sends Start/Stop messages for each authenticated
supplicant.

•

The device uses the configured priorities of the available RADIUS servers to select the RADIUS server to

use.

•

If a new supplicant replaces an old supplicant (even if the port state remains authorized), the software sends

a Stop message for the old supplicant and a Start message for the new supplicant.

•

The software does not send Start/Stop messages if the port is force-authorized.

•

The software does not send Start/Stop messages for hosts that are sending traffic on the guest VLAN or on

the unauthenticated VLANs.

•

The following table describes the supported RADIUS accounting Attribute Values when they are sent by the
