Figure 5-9. Example of Optional Accounting Update Period and Accounting Suppression on Unknown User
3. (Optional) Configure Session Blocking and Interim
Updating Options
These optional parameters give you additional control over accounting data.
Updates: In addition to using a Start-Stop or Stop-Only trigger, you
■
can optionally configure the switch to send periodic accounting
record updates to a RADIUS server.
Suppress: The switch can suppress accounting for an unknown user
■
having no username.
Syntax:[no] aaa accounting update periodic < 1 - 525600 > Sets the accounting
update period
for all accounting sessions on the
switch. (The no form disables the
update function and resets the value
to zero.) (Default: zero; disabled)
[no] aaa accounting suppress null-usernameDisables accounting for
unknown
users having no username.
(Default: suppression disabled)
To continue the example in figure 5-8, suppose that you wanted the switch to:
Send updates every 10 minutes on in-progress accounting sessions.
■
■ Block accounting for unknown users (no username).
