Re: Resetting the status server counters

I've been looking at this page[1] and I'm using a command like

echo "Message-Authenticator = 0x00, FreeRADIUS-Statistics-Type = 1" | /usr/local/bin/radclient localhost:18120 status adminsecret

to extract some numbers of processed packets, etc. Is there a way to send packets to the status server to reset the counters (without restarting radiusd?)

Send it a HUP.

I'm thinking of polling this command every X minutes and resetting the counter so I get a measure of "how many packets processed in the last X minutes"

Or, use something like "munin" to do this work for you. The latest revision even includes scripts that work with FreeRADIUS! Alan DeKok.
