Access-Request (Quota Depleted)

Flow 7c shows the client sending an Access-Request to the Cisco AR 3.5 server because at least one quota has been depleted. The Access-Request includes different measurements of how much of the quotas were used in VSA format. This enables the billing server to account for the usage and manage the subscriber’s balance before assigning a new quota. Table 6-7lists the attributes returned to the Cisco AR 3.5 server:
