Enabling/Disabling Stopping Accounting Request Buffer; Setting The Maximum Retransmitting Times Of Stopping Accounting Request - Huawei Quidway S3500 Series Operation Manual

Operation Manual - Security
Quidway S3500 Series Ethernet Switches
How to calculate the value of retry-times? Suppose that RADIUS server connection will
timeout in T and the real-time accounting interval of NAS is t, then the integer part of the
result from dividing T by t is the value of count. Therefore, when applied, T is suggested
the numbers which can be divided exactly by t.
By default, the real-time accounting request can fail to be responded no more than 5
times.

3.3.9 Enabling/Disabling Stopping Accounting Request Buffer

Because the stopping accounting request concerns account balance and will affect the
amount of charge, which is very important for both the subscribers and the ISP, NAS
shall make its best effort to send the message to RADIUS accounting server.
Accordingly, if the message from Quidway Series Switches to RADIUS accounting
server has not been responded, switch shall save it in the local buffer and retransmit it
until the server responds or discards the messages after transmitting for specified times.
The following command can be used for setting to save the message or not. If save,
use the command to set the maximum retransmission times.
Perform the following configurations in RADIUS scheme view.
