6.1.10.3 AAA Accounting Update
To enable periodic interim accounting records to be sent to the accounting server, use the aaa accounting
update command in global configuration mode. To disable interim accounting updates, use the no form of this
command.
Command Purpose
aaa accounting update [newinfo]
[periodicnumber]
Enables AAA accounting update.
If the newinfo keyword is used, interim accounting records will be sent to the accounting server every time
there is new accounting information to report. An example of this would be when IP Control Protocol (IPCP)
completes IP address negotiation with the remote peer. The interim accounting record will include the
negotiated IP address used by the remote peer.
When used with the periodic keyword, interim accounting records are sent periodically as defined by the
argument number. The interim accounting record contains all of the accounting information recorded for that
user up to the time the accounting record is sent.
When using both the newinfo and periodic keywords, interim accounting records are sent to the accounting
server every time there is new accounting information to report, and accounting records are sent to the
accounting server periodically as defined by the argument number. For example, if you configure the aaa
accounting update newinfo periodic number command, all users currently logged in will continue to generate
periodic interim accounting records while new users will generate accounting records based on the newinfo
algorithm.
6.1.10.4 AAA accounting suppress null-username
To prevent the AAA system from sending accounting records for users whose username string is NULL, use
the aaa accounting suppress null-username command in global configuration mode. To allow sending records
for users with a NULL username, use the no form of this command.
