Configuring User Accounting Activity for RADIUS

After AAA has been enabled and the gateway has been configured to recognize RADIUS as the remote
security server providing authentication services, the next step is to configure the gateway to report user
activity to the RADIUS server in the form of connection accounting records. To send connection
accounting records to the RADIUS server, use the following commands beginning in global
configuration mode:

Command

Purpose

Step 1

Router(config)# aaa accounting connection h323

{stop-only | start-stop | wait-start | none}

[broadcast] group group-name

Defines the accounting method list H.323 with
RADIUS as a method.

The keywords and arguments are as follows:

stop-only—Sends a “stop” accounting notice at
the end of the requested user process.

start-stop—Sends a “start” accounting notice at
the beginning of a process and a “stop”
accounting notice at the end of a process. The
“start” accounting record is sent in the
background. The requested user process begins
regardless of whether the “start” accounting
notice was received by the accounting server.

wait-start—Sends a “start” accounting notice at
the beginning of a process and a “stop”
accounting notice at the end of a process. The
“start” accounting record is sent in the
background. The requested user process does not
begin until the “start” accounting notice is
received by the server.

none—Disables accounting services on this line
or interface.

broadcast—(Optional) Enables sending
accounting records to multiple AAA servers.
Simultaneously sends accounting records to the
first server in each group. If the first server is
unavailable, failover occurs using the backup
servers defined within that group.

group group-name—Specifies the server group
to be used for accounting services. The following
are valid server group names:

string—Specifies the character string used to
name a server group.

radius—Uses list of all RADIUS hosts.

tacacs+—Uses list of all TACACS+ hosts.
