Figure 4. Accounting Configured for the Common Option
3. Configure Accounting Types and the Controls for Sending Reports to the RADIUS
Server. Accounting Service Types. Configure one or more accounting service types to track:
• Exec: Use exec if you want to collect accounting information on login sessions on the
switch via the console, Telnet, or SSH.
• System: Use system if you want to collect accounting data when:
– A system boot or reload occurs
– System accounting is turned on or off
Note that there is no time span associated with using the system option. It simply causes the
switch to transmit whatever accounting data it currently has when one of the above events
occurs.
• Network: Use network if you want to collect accounting information on 802.1X port-
based-access to the network by users connected to the physical ports on the switch.
• Commands: When commands accounting is enabled, an accounting notice record is
sent after the execution of each command.
Accounting Controls. These options are enabled separately, and define how the switch will send
accounting data to a RADIUS server:
■ Start-Stop: Applies to the exec, network, and system accounting service types:
• Send a “start record accounting” notice at the beginning of the accounting session and a “stop
record notice” at the end of the session. Both notices include the latest data the switch has
collected for the requested accounting type.
• Do not wait for an acknowledgement.
