<p class=MsoPlainText>Hi,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>I am newbie and I have couple of questions in the free
radius.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>1)<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>How do we maintain the session time in free radius?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>For example, a given user the session time is configured
for 1 hour.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>After 1 hour, radius server should initiate "Session
disconnect message" for the user to the NAS.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>I understand that, Freeradius does support "session
disconnect message", but we can achieve this with radclient utility.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>Ref: <a
href="http://wiki.freeradius.org/protocol/Disconnect-Messages">http://wiki.freeradius.org/protocol/Disconnect-Messages</a><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>Here my problem is, how the session timeout is identified
to trigger this disconnect message?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>Please help.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>2) where freeradius logs the accounting
information? I have not configured the mysql. Does freeradius supports
flat file for storing accounting records.?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>Thanks<o:p></o:p></p>
