whats the difference between Accounting stop and AcctStatusType=stop?
Accounting stop and AcctStatusType=tunnel-stop....
I need only stop packets. I'm not going to store accounting start packets.
If i send accounting stop packets and AcctStatusType=tunnel-stop am receiving it as AcctStatusType=Stop only. why? any reason?
my questions are:
1. I need to store/log only Accounting stop packets with AcctStatusType = Stop.
If i get a packet of AcctStatusType="Start,Checkpoint,Accounting-On,Accounting-Off,Tunnel-Start,Tunnel-Stop,Tunnel-Reject,Tunnel-Link-Start,
Tunnel-Link-Stop, Tunnel-Link-Reject, Failed" need to ignore them and not to be stored in db.
for this i commented out all the queries(start,update,on,off) except accounting_stop_query and accounting_stop_query_alt.
Will this satisfies my requirement?
Plz help me.

If you don't record Start packets you won't be able to detect double
(or multiple) logins by the same user. Potentially, one user can pay you
and reveal his user/pass to everybody and all of them will be able to
connect to your network as they please. If Simultaneous-Use is working
only one at the time can connect - they can still share user details but
they won't be able to connect in the same time.

There should be Interim-Update on that list as well. Freeradius processes
Start, Stop, Update, On and Off by default.

You have done that already:
