Applies to version(s): v2.10

This article describes how to configure RADIUS settings to capture CDRs, using a RADIUS server. RADIUS requests are sent from the system configured IP Interfaces or from the management port.

1- Select RADIUS from the navigation panel.

2- You can modify the following parameters:

Timezone
Time format
Source IP interface

Advanced Parameters:

Maximum accounting concurrent records
Maximum accounting queued records
Maximum authorization concurrent requests
Maximum authorization queued requests
Additional dictionary

Click Create.

3- Verify that the RADIUS client configuration successfully created message is displayed.

Path

/configurations/@[configuration_name]/radius_clients/@[radius_client]

Parameters (text)

/configurations/@[configuration_name]/radius_clients/@[radius_client]
additional_dictionnary = ""
ip_interface           = "ANY"
time_format            = "%H:%M:%S.@m %z %a %b %d %Y"
timezone               = "Greenwich Mean Time"

/configurations/@[configuration_name]/radius_clients/@[radius_client]/accounting_queue
maximum_concurrent_records = 10
maximum_queued_records     = 12000

/configurations/@[configuration_name]/radius_clients/@[radius_client]/authorization_queue
maximum_concurrent_requests = 200
maximum_queued_requests     = 12000

Parameters (json)

{
  "accounting_queue" : {
    "maximum_concurrent_records" : 10,
    "maximum_queued_records" : 12000
  },
  "additional_dictionnary" : "",
  "authorization_queue" : {
    "maximum_concurrent_requests" : 200,
    "maximum_queued_requests" : 12000
  },

 - You can modify the following parameters:
-*'''Timezone''' will use the local timezone or the GMT timezone in the CDR records
+*'''Timezone'''
-*'''Time format''' describes how to display the time in human readable format in the CDR records. This is based on the [http://php.net/manual/en/function.strftime.php strftime function]
+*'''Time format'''
+*'''Source IP interface'''
 '''Advanced Parameters:'''
-*'''Maximum accounting concurrent records''' is the maximum number of simultaneous accounting records to be sent to the RADIUS servers. This improves the RADIUS performance of the system: it allows the RADIUS client to deal with servers that have high latency relative to the number of request/responses per second to be achieved. Default value is 10 records.
+*'''Maximum accounting concurrent records'''
-*'''Maximum accounting queued records''' is the maximum number of accounting records to queue when the maximum number of pending records has been reached. When the maximum number of queued messages is reached, CDR records will be dropped. To prevent this, make sure the system supports [[CDR redundancy|CDR redundancy]]. Default value is 12000 records.
+*'''Maximum accounting queued records'''
-*'''Maximum authorization concurrent requests''' is the maximum number of simultaneous authorization requests to be sent to RADIUS servers. Default value is 200 requests.
+*'''Maximum authorization concurrent requests'''
-*'''Maximum authorization queued requests''' is the maximum number of authorization requests to queue when the maximum number of pending requests is reached. Default value is 12000 requests.
+*'''Maximum authorization queued requests'''
-*'''Additional dictionary''' is an additional RADIUS dictionary for custom attributes.
+*'''Additional dictionary'''
 *Click '''Create'''.
