Enabling Wireless Network Accounting

Settings on the Port Assignments Page

The Port Assignments page contains these settings for the internal radio ports and the radio module ports:

•ifIndex—Lists the port’s designator in the Standard MIB-II (RFC1213-MIB.my) interface index.

•dot1dBasePort—Lists the port’s designator in the Bridge MIB (RFC1493; BRIDGE-MIB.my) interface index.

•AID—Lists the port’s 802.11 radio drivers association identifier.

•Station—Enter the MAC address of the device to which you want to assign the port in the port’s Station entry field. When you click Apply or OK, the port is reserved for that MAC address.

Enabling Wireless Network Accounting

You can enable accounting on the access point to send network accounting information about wireless client devices to a RADIUS server on your network. Cisco Secure ACS writes accounting records to a log file or to a database daily. Consult the Cisco Secure ACS 2.6 for Windows 2000/NT Servers User Guide for instructions on viewing and downloading the log or database:

If you have a UNIX server, use this URL to browse to the CiscoSecure ACS 2.3 for UNIX User Guide:

http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/access/acs_soft/cs_unx/csu23ug/index.htm

Use the Accounting Setup page to enable and set up accounting on the access point. Figure 9-8shows the Accounting Setup page.
