Parameter
None
Description
Use the stop-accounting-buffer enable command to enable the switch to buffer the
stop-accounting requests that bring no response.
Use the undo stop-accounting-buffer enable command to disable the switch from
buffering the stop-accounting requests that bring no response.
By default, the switch is enabled to buffer the stop-accounting requests that bring no
response.
Stop-accounting requests are critical to billing and will eventually affect the charges;
they are important for both the users and the ISP. Therefore, the NAS should do its best
to transmit them to the RADIUS accounting server. If the RADIUS accounting server
does not respond to such a request, the switch should first buffer the request on itself,
and then retransmit the request to the RADIUS accounting server until it gets a
response, or the maximum number of transmission attempts is reached (in this case, it
discards the request).
Related command: reset stop-accounting-buffer, radius scheme and display
stop-accounting-buffer.
Example
# Enable the switch to buffer the stop-accounting requests that bring no response from
the servers in RADIUS scheme radius1.
