(RADIATOR) question

[queksteven at stsunpage.st.com.sg]

Hi Chris,

My advice for different time zone u should be using a stored procedure to
process the accounting event. The person might be said surfing 11pm and end
@2am. u will be charging 11-12am and the rest free.

We have implementing the rating using the stored procedure and it allows
flexibility as well.


Hope it help.

You could use an AcctSQLStatement that sets thir expiry date if it is
currently NULL. The the first successful session start will set their
expiry
date to, say the current date + 30 days (or whatever your policy is).

You could set up multiple Handlers, each with a different Time check items:

# off peak
<Handler Time=Al0000-0700>
             <AuthBy RADMIN>
                         # no AccountingTable or AcctColumnDef entries here
                         # means no accounting data inserted
                         ....
             </AuthBy>
</Handler>

# all the rest
<Handler>
             <AuthBy RADMIN>
                         ....
             </AuthBy>
</Handler>

The AuthBy RADMIN clauses would be
