PMP 450i and PTP 450i Configuration and User
Task 15: Configuring a RADIUS server
Attribute Meaning
Accounting Messages
• disable – no accounting messages are sent to the RADIUS
server
• deviceAccess – accounting messages are sent to the RADIUS
server regarding device access (see Table 63).
Access
Tracking
To track logon and logoff times on individual radios by technicians, installers, and
administrators, on the AP or SM’s Account > User Authentication and Access
Tracking tab
under
Accounting (Access Tracking) set Accounting Messages to
“deviceAccess”.
Device Access Tracking is enabled separately from User Authentication Mode. A
given AP
or
SM can be configured for both, either, or
neither.
RADIUS Device Data Accounting
PMP 450i systems include support for RADIUS accounting messages for usage-based
billing. This accounting includes indications for subscriber session establishment,
subscriber session disconnection, and bandwidth usage per session for each SM that
connects to the AP. The attributes included in the RADIUS accounting messages are shown
in the table below.
