(ASCEND) Radius (Start, stop logs)

[Roddy Strachan <roddy@satlink.com.au>]

Hi,
	Maybe a little off-topic, but just having a bit of bother with
radius at the moment and stamping of logs, with our Ascend Max, ACC
Tigris & PM2.
We have 2 2511's they work fine here is what I mean below :

From the 2511's and PM2 :

Fri Jul  9 00:10:17 1999
        NAS-IP-Address = xxxxxxxxxxx
        NAS-Port-Id = 3
        NAS-Port-Type = Async
        User-Name = "usernameblah"
        Acct-Status-Type = Stop
        Acct-Authentic = RADIUS
        Service-Type = Framed-User
        Acct-Session-Id = "000007AA"
        Framed-Protocol = PPP
        Framed-IP-Address = xxxxxxxxxxx
        Acct-Input-Octets = 146359
        Acct-Output-Octets = 4175494
        Acct-Input-Packets = 3502
        Acct-Output-Packets = 3714
        Acct-Session-Time = 1488
        Acct-Delay-Time = 0
        Timestamp = 931443017
        Request-Authenticator = Verified

Ok that looks fine, with the Acct-Status-Type = Stop.

From the Pm2 :

Fri Jul  9 04:25:15 1999
        Acct-Session-Id = "4700A43F"
        User-Name = "jehovah"
        NAS-IP-Address = 203.19.222.15
        NAS-Port-Id = 3
        NAS-Port-Type = Async
        Acct-Status-Type = Start
        Acct-Authentic = RADIUS
        Service-Type = Framed-User
        Framed-Protocol = PPP
        Framed-IP-Address = 203.19.222.71
        Acct-Delay-Time = 0
        Timestamp = 931458315
        Request-Authenticator = Verified

Note how this one has an Acct-Status-Type = Start and then later on down
the log it makes another entry with the Status of Stop, and records the
time and packets used etc ,etc

I wont bother pasting the ascend and tigris ones, because they are the
same, it is adding Start and Stop logs in the log file, where as the
Cisco's dont.  Anyone shed any light on why these 3 access servers are
doign this?? 
I am including other dictionaries for them :
$INCLUDE dictionary.compat
$INCLUDE dictionary.merit
$INCLUDE dictionary.ascend

The Max uses the .ascend dictionary, and the Tigris uses the main
dictionary file which is the livingston radius one.
