Accounting for a WM-AD
The next step is to enable and configure, for a WM-AD, the methods of accounting to track the activity
of a wireless device users. Two types of accounting can be enabled:
● Summit WM-Series Switch Accounting: enables the Summit WM-Series Switch to generate Call Data
Records (CDRs) in a flat file on the Summit WM-Series Switch
● RADIUS Accounting: enables the Summit WM-Series Switch to generate an “accounting request
packet” with an “accounting start record” after successful login by the wireless device user and an
“accounting stop record” based on session termination. The Summit WM-Series Switch sends the
accounting requests to a remote RADIUS server.
Summit WM-Series Switch Accounting creates Call Data Records (CDRs) in a standard format of user
session information, such as start time and duration of session. The CDRs are stored in flat files that be
downloaded via the CLI.
If you enable RADIUS Accounting, you need to specify a RADIUS accounting server.
