59.3 Configuring RADIUS Accounting
The device can send accounting data of SIP calls as call detail records (CDR) to a RADIUS
Accounting server. The device can send the accounting messages to the RADIUS server
upon call release, call connection and release, or call setup and release. For a list of the
CDR attributes, see the table following the procedure below.
Notes:
• For RADIUS accounting settings to take effect, you must save the
settings to flash memory with a device reset.
• For a description of the RADIUS accounting parameters, see 'RADIUS
Parameters' on page 789.
