1.1 The accounting
The accounting feature allows you to log with the Trace output the login and data
traffic of a client in the wlan network.
I.e.: Station MAC / Station IP / Date / Time / AP Name / Session Time.
With these data you can verify how your network is used.
2 Pricipal setup
2.1 Overview
The Router is supporting the DHCP and DNS Server and internet interface. To switch
are all connected (OpenBAT, WLC, NMS Station). All network devices have a fixed IP
address. The WLAN clients get an IP Address by DHCP.
The controller contains the configuration for the APs. It is a standard configuration. The
add on is the accounting feature.
For this, the Radius function has to be enabled and at the logical Interface too. Also the
accounting under General Accounting must be activated.
