Usage Guidelines

The CSG2 User Table identifies all subscribers known to the CSG2. The table is populated on the basis
of the contents of RADIUS Accounting Start messages, or from the user database, if either feature is
enabled in your configuration.

When setting the entry idle timer, keep the following considerations in mind:

You can set the entry idle timer either globally, using the ip csg entries user idle command in global
configuration mode, or in each billing plan, using the entries user idle command. If you do not set
the timer in the billing plan, the CSG2 uses the global timer. That is, if there is an entry idle timer
value in the billing plan, it is used; otherwise, if there is a global entry idle timer value configured,
it is used.

If set, the idle timer starts when there are no billable sessions, and restarts whenever a RADIUS
Accounting Start or an Interim Accounting message is received. The timer stops when a billable
session is started.

If you do not specify the pod keyword, the CSG2 deletes the idle entry when the timer expires.

If you specify the pod keyword, and if RADIUS Packet of Disconnect (PoD) is configured for the
CSG2, the CSG2 sends a PoD message when the idle timer expires. The CSG2 deletes the idle entry
when the PoD message is ACKed, NAKed, or when all retries have been sent.

idle duration

Number of seconds after which entries for idle subscribers are deleted from the
CSG2 User Table. The range is from 0 (entries never idle out) to 2147483647.
The default setting is 0 (entries never idle out).

pod

(Optional) Specifies whether the CSG2 is to send the RADIUS Packet of
Disconnect message when an entry idles out.
