RE: [Serusers] Radius accounting howto - sr-users

1 Jun 2006


      Hi,
I succeeded in sending radius start/stop packets to my Radius server.
But I saw a problem when the hanging up party is different from the calling party.
In the following radius start/stop pair 200000900568888885 mailto:200000900568888885@sip.test.net  calls 200000900569871112 but 200000900569871112 is hanging up. So the BYE message is sent from 200000900569871112.
How can I solve this problem so that calling party is same for both radius start stop messages ?

The purpose of the module is to take care of that all for you.  I'm afraid I don't use the acc_radius module as I don't honestly see the point in separating out each and every logging function into separate modules (talk about backward thinking).  I still use the older acc module compiled with radius support.
The code block I sent you is all that's necessary for the logging of start/stop requests.

I tried that configuration. I get no errors but also no radius packet is created/sent. 
after setting the flag by "setflag()" command , do I have to enter another command to send the accounting packet for that marked message ?
Thanks, 
ilker

Thanks for that information. But, how does Ser know to send start or stop message to radius ?
Thanks,

These are essentially log flags.
In order to log an INVITE or a BYE to the radius server (assuming your log_flag param was set to 1), you'd do something like:
    if((method=="INVITE" && !has_totag()) || method=="BYE") 
    { 
                    setflag(1); 
    }; 


I stick that BEFORE the loose_route section of my config, as if I don't, it doesn't seem to catch things correctly. I've yet to debug why.  The reason I put the extra !has_totag() in there is for my accounting, so I don't end up logging reINVITES from the remote side.
Basically, the parameter for log_flag determines which flag you set in order to log the packet to the radius server.

Hi,
Thanks for your reply. I saw that in the source and changed according to them. But I still can't see any radius packets created/sent by Ser when a call is made. 
What should I add to the configuration to send start/stop packets ?

Those params are valid for the old acc module compiled with radius support. 
The acc_radius module I think uses log_flag and log_missed_flag (according to the source).

Hi everyone,
I am trying to use acc_radius module with presence CVS sources. 
I compiled the radiusclient library and compiled ser with acc_radius module.
Then I added following lines to the config:
loadmodule "/root/ser/lib/ser/modules/acc_radius.so" 
modparam("acc_radius", "radius_config",
"/usr/local/etc/radiusclient-ng/radiusclient.conf")
...
modparam("acc_radius", "service_type", 15) modparam("acc_radius", 
"radius_flag", 1) modparam("acc_radius", "radius_missed_flag", 3) 
modparam("acc_radius", "report_ack", 0)
But when I try to start ser, it doesn't accept 2 parameters: 
modparam("acc_radius", "radius_flag", 1) modparam("acc_radius", 
"radius_missed_flag", 3)
What should be the correct syntax for these parameters ? are they required ?
And what else should I add to the configuration to send radius-start 
and
radius-stop messages to the radius server ?
...
Thanks, 
ilker
