Hello, is the timestamp in the Accounting packet really important for your monitoring puroposes?

Here's an example of such a packet, note the output octets: Tue Jun 13 16:05:30 2006 User-Name = "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" NAS-IP-Address = xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx NAS-Port = 29 Service-Type = Framed-User Framed-Protocol = PPP Framed-IP-Address = xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx Proxy-State = 0x42543030326436336366643134 Acct-Status-Type = Alive Acct-Delay-Time = 0 Acct-Input-Octets = 899858807 Acct-Output-Octets = 1150153200 Acct-Session-Id = "0002576E" Acct-Authentic = RADIUS Acct-Session-Time = 1583103 Acct-Input-Packets = 7437599 Acct-Output-Packets = 8973389 NAS-Port-Type = Virtual Client-IP-Address = xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx Acct-Unique-Session-Id = "372fc40c32b2b500" Timestamp = 1150211130 The output octets figure 1150153200 translates to Tue Jun 13 00:00:00 2006 GMT. We currently do not have direct access to the NAS servers that are sending across this data, but we have worked together with our provider towards replicating this through testing. In each case the expected data is reported and we have yet to reproduce the error manually. As the data transfer has only recently become an area we wish to monitor and log, it is impossible to tell whether this has always been occurring. Has anyone experienced this before? Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated. Kind regards, Tim O'Donovan - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe? See http://www.freeradius.org/list/users.html - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe?
