[RADIATOR] Hopefully a simple question regarding accounting

Hi Folks,

The Eduroam Fedaration are on the verge of implementing a
"no-accounting" border between Organisational and National Proxies and
participants are being asked to stop sending accounting packets upstream.

Currently, I have the following config that forwards to the NRPS:


<AuthBy RADIUS>
        Identifier NRPS
        FailureBackoffTime 10
        RetryTimeout 5
        Retries 1
        UseExtendedIds
        AllowInRequest  User-Name, Reply-Message, State, Class, \
                        Message-Authenticator, Proxy-State,     \
                        EAP-Message, MS-MPPE-Send-Key, MS-MPPE-Recv-Key, \
                        Calling-Station-Id, Acct-Status-Type,
Acct-Session-ID

        AllowInReply    User-Name, Reply-Message, State, Class, \
                        Message-Authenticator, Proxy-State,     \
                        EAP-Message, MS-MPPE-Send-Key, MS-MPPE-Recv-Key, \
                        Calling-Station-Id, Acct-Status-Type,
Acct-Session-ID, Operator-Name



        AddToRequest Operator-Name="1sanger.ac.uk"
#
# Include the radius server specific NRPS host configuration
#
        include %D/%h.nrps

        AutoMPPEKeys
</AuthBy>

<Handler User-Name = /^([^@]*)@([^@]+)$/i>
        Identifier OUT-NRPS
        AcctLogFileName %L/default.acct.log
        AuthByPolicy ContinueWhileIgnore
        AuthLog EduroamLog
        AuthBy AuthLOG
        AuthBy NRPS
</Handler>


where %D/%h.nrps  simply contains the <Host> declarations for the upstreams.


If I want to ensure that no accounting packets are sent upstream is it
as simple as adding "IgnoreAccounting" the AuthBy:

<AuthBy RADIUS>
	Identifier NRPS

	IgnoreAccounting
	
	FailureBackoffTime 10
	RetryTimeout 5
	Retries 1

.
.
.
</AuthBy>

Just seems too simple!


Thanks,

Martin.
