Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

After a user goes offline, the device sends an accounting-stop packet to an accounting server. After the accounting server receives the accounting-stop packet, it stops accounting for the user. If the accounting server does not receive the accounting-stop packet because of network faults, it continues to perform accounting for the user. As a result, the user is charged incorrectly. To solve this problem, configure the device to send accounting-stop packets multiple times.

Precautions

If disable is configured, an accounting-stop packet is transmitted only once even when packet transmission fails.
If enable number is configured, number specifies the number of accounting-stop packets that can be retransmitted each time when the device does not receive any response packet from the HWTACACS server or fails to receive the response packet.

Example

# Enable the retransmission of accounting-stop packets and set the number of accounting-stop packets that can be retransmitted each time to 50.
