No Reply Proxy for Accounting Requests

2005-12-16 Thread David Bickle
Does anyone know how to configure a proxy for the forwarding of no reply
accounting requests? In particular I am interested in accounting start/stop
packets.

Thanks,

Re: No Reply Proxy for Accounting Requests

In some versions of RADIUS it is possible using the proxy feature to forward
accounting requests to a home radius server or some other 3rd party server
without having to wait for a response packet. Typically this is accomplished
by configuring an attribute (ie. IgnoreAccountingResponse) in the proxy
section where the forwarding server is instructed to not wait for a reply. I
have examined the proxy.conf file and there appears to be no equivalent
functionality in FreeRadius. Is this true? Is there a work around?

 What does forwarding of no reply accounting requests mean?

Forwarding Accounting Requests

2005-12-14 Thread David Bickle
Hi,
I am looking to have FreeRadius forward accounting stop/start packets to a
third party device. I understand this can be done by configuring the proxy
.conf. The problem has to do with how the accounting requests are forwarded.
In other versions of Radius it is possible to forward accounting packets
with an attribute setting that ensures the forwarding server doesn't listen
for a response. I would like to set this same configuration in FreeRadius
but it doesn't appear that this functionality.

Is there a way to forward accounting request packets (start/stop) without
requiring the forwarding server to listen for responses?

Thanks in advance.
