Cisco 2960 and WLC Accounting Interim-Update

[Matthew Ceroni]

Alan:

Ya, I figured it was the NAS. All the reading I did seemed to suggest that.

I was able to force the 2960 to sent at regular intervals by setting the
Acct-Interim-Interval option in the Accept-Request packet. But that didn't
work for the WLC.
