Hi All,
I am using pfsense as a NAS in a Captive Portal scenario in which AAA
functionality is provided by an external RADIUS Server. Enable interim
updates on pfsense captive portal config page, in order to get regular
updates of users data usage. Performed several tests and analyzing the
Radius Accounting Logs realized that during the same session (for a
specific user), the value of Acct-Output-Octets and Acct-Input-Octets is
not cumulative, as I expected, based on readings about RADIUS interim
update packets.
I noticed this behavor on pfSense-2.0.2, upgraded to 2.0.3 but the issue
persists. I send below, a radacc file from my last experiment. Please note
the values of the above mentioned parameters, decreasing after the 2nd
Accounting update.
Any ideas? Has anyone faced a similar problem?
