UpdateAccountingType

Description

This command sets the type of Update Accounting messages that are sent to the RADIUS server per call.

Guidelines

The AccountingType option must have messaging turned on for this command.

Options are as follows:

• 0 = Disabled

• 1 = Generate Update-Accounting only for the outgoing leg

• 2 = Generate Update-Accounting for incoming and outgoing legs

• 3 = Generate Update-Accounting only for the outgoing leg, with disconnect

Setting this command to 3 requires the RADIUS server to send a return code in the Update-Accounting response. A non-zero value of the return code should result in the termination of the call. A timeout after the retries configured in the database should also result in the termination of the call.

• 4 = Generate Update-Accounting for incoming and outgoing legs

Setting this command to 4 will generate Update-Accounting on Connect instead of call initiation. The UpdateAccountingInterval is ignored.
