for some reason my message does not display at all in the mailing. I wonder why? The
following was my original questions. Please let me know is you got it correctly.
Hi
Need some clarification as to certain process as newbie to voip gateway
billing. I am writing a billing application for a voip gateway(H323) for prepaid,
postpaid,wholesale, intergateway termination and have never used radius server .
The following is a diagram the explains "the big picture".
System Layer Application Layer
|-------------------------|
||--------------------------------------|
|Gateyway <-> Radius | -ftp CDR--> | Some custom billing |
|-------------------------|
||-------------------------------------|
Gateway: Quintum tenor or any gateway
Radius : FreeRadius
Questions
1. Which is the better approach:
(a) let the gateway push cdr to radius
(b) let the radius pull info from gateway
2. What is the role of Radius in the whole architecture.?
3. How does Radius process CDR.? Is there some mapping that has to be
done for mapping CDR to "Radius schema". If yes, please can anyone share
their "cdr to radius schema mapping"
4. Can anyone recommend a good tutorials or books for radius?
5. Recommended configuration radius? Should i configure it with with a database or
ldap?
I'll appreciate any suggestions
thanks

Hi,
I have freeradius 0.6 acting as a proxy for authentication and accounting.
It works fine for authentication request/accept and accounting-stop, but my
NAS complains about the accounting-start messages:
WARNING: Identifier does not match - ignoring response
WARNING: Invalid response signature - check secret!
Freeradius does not generate any error messages in debug mode (-X).
It seems strange that freeradius is only complaining about accounting-stop,
so it looks to me like freeradius is mis-handling accounting-start when
proxying them. Has anyone else seen this behaviour?
