| Hello, I'm wondering if anyone has an opinion of the right meaning for input vs. output with respect to acct-in/output-octets/packets? In RFC 2866, it says: Acct-Input-Octets = This attribute indicates how many octets have been received from the port over the course of this service being provided. In the manual of a popular commercial access controller, it says: Acct-Input-Octets = Number of octets/bytes received by the customer. Which is a rather "outward" way of looking at the "port" referred to in RFC. I have also seen it defined in the reverse way. To be standard with commercial gear, I have taken the above definition as being the 'right way' ... other opinions? David |
