RADIUS Accounting
The AT-S63 management software supports RADIUS accounting for ports
operating in the Authenticator role. The accounting information sent by the
switch to a RADIUS server includes the date and time when clients log on
and log off, as well as the number of packets sent and received by a switch
port during a client session. For background information on this feature,
refer to Chapter 31, “802.1x Port-based Network Access Control” in the
AT-S63 Management Software Menus Interface User’s Guide. This
feature is disabled by default on the switch.
