6.1.5 Configuring WLAN Accounting Settings

Wireless LANs
Accounting is the method of collecting and sending security server information for billing, auditing, and reporting user data;
such as start and stop times, executed commands (such as PPP), number of packets and number of bytes. Accounting enables
wireless network administrators to track the services users are accessing and the network resources they are consuming.
When accounting is enabled, the network access server reports and logs user activity to a RADIUS security server in the form
of accounting records. The data can be analyzed for network management, client billing, and/or auditing. Accounting methods
must be defined through AAA.
Accounting can be enabled and applied to managed WLANs, to uniquely log accounting events specific to the WLAN.
Accounting logs contain information about the use of remote access services by users. This information is of great assistance
in partitioning local versus remote users and how to best accommodate each. Remote user information can be archived to a
remote location for periodic network and user permission administration.
