Figure 5-9. Example of Configuring Accounting Types
For example, to configure RADIUS accounting on the switch with start-stop
for exec functions and stop-only for system functions:
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 ses-
sions on the switch. (The no form disables the update
function and resets the value to zero.) (Default: zero; dis-
abled)
Syntax: [no] aaa accounting suppress null-username
Disables accounting for unknown users having no user-
name. (Default: suppression disabled)
To continue the example in figure 5-9, suppose that you wanted the switch to:
Send updates every 10 minutes on in-progress accounting sessions.

Block accounting for unknown users (no username).
