Configuring the Accounting Order

Beginning with JUNOS release 8.0, you can configure RADIUS accounting for an L2TP profile.

With RADIUS accounting enabled, Juniper Networks routers, acting as RADIUS clients, can notify the RADIUS server about user activities such as software logins, configuration changes, and interactive commands. The framework for RADIUS accounting is described in RFC 2866.

To configure RADIUS accounting, include the accounting-order statement at the [edit access profile profile-name] hierarchy level:

[edit access profile profile-name]
accounting-order radius;

When you enable RADIUS accounting for an L2TP profile, it applies to all the clients within that profile. You must enable RADIUS accounting on at least one LT2P profile for the RADIUS authentication server to send accounting stop and start messages.

Note: When you enable RADIUS accounting for an L2TP profile, you do not need to configure the accounting-port statement at the [edit access radius-server server-address] hierarchy level. When you enable RADIUS accounting for an L2TP profile, accounting is triggered on the default port of 1813.

For L2TP, RADIUS authentication servers are configured at the [edit access radius-server] hierarchy level. For more information about configuring RADIUS authentication servers, see Configuring RADIUS Authentication for L2TP.
