The Service Manager application supports RADIUS accounting and interim accounting for subscriber service sessions that are activated by the RADIUS login and RADIUS CoA methods. When RADIUS accounting is enabled, RADIUS generates:
RADIUS accounting messages always include Service Manager time statistics. You must enable Service Manager volume statistics for a service session.
When you terminate a subscriber session, Service Manager first sends RADIUS Acct-Stop messages for any active services associated with the subscriber session, and then sends the Acct-Stop message for the subscriber session.

Note: Service Manager statistics collection is a two-part procedure. You must configure statistics information in the service definition macro file and also enable statistics collection. For detailed information about Service Manager statistics, see Configuring Service Manager Statistics . |
To support RADIUS accounting for Service Manager, the RADIUS Acct-Session-ID attribute [44] has been extended to include a colon-separated identifier, which uniquely identifies a service for a subscriber. For example:
- erx FastEthernet 12/0:0001048580:002478
The Service-Session attribute (VSA 26-83) identifies the name of the service. This attribute is the value of the Activate-Service or Deactivate-Service attribute (including parameter values) that was used in the RADIUS Access-Accept message to activate or deactivate the service session. For example:
- tiered(1280000, 5120000)
