basis

Usage Guidelines For TCP billing, configuring basis byte tcp allows counting of only TCP payload and exclusion of overhead for network retransmission. With this option, the CSG2 excludes IP and TCP headers from volume counts. The byte counting is limited to TCP payload. Retransmitted packets are not counted.

Services that are configured with the basis second connect command (that is, for Connection Duration Billing) are subject to the following restrictions:

•Service verification is not supported for Connection Duration services.

•If redirect is to be performed when the Connection Duration service runs out of quota, the URL location to which the CSG2 redirects must map to a policy that does not have accounting configured. This is because all IP sessions mapped to policies with accounting configured (postpaid or prepaid) are dropped when the Connection Duration service has no quota.

For Service Duration Billing:

•When a Service Duration Billing Service is a member of a billing plan, and an accounting definition is in service and downloaded to a CSG2 module, you cannot modify the basis or meter configuration. You are instructed at the console to configure no inservice on the downloaded Accounting definitions.

•If a content configuration is included in a service configured for basis second, the CSG2 restricts the content idle timeout to less than or equal to the service idle timeout for the service. The content idle time is not included in the last billable time for the service.

•The CSG2 does not allow you to specify weights for Service Duration Billing.

Note We recommend that you first remove the service from each billing plan, make the basis changes, and add it back to each billing plan. If you delete it, the service is automatically removed from each billing plan, and you must add it back to each plan after configuring it.

To enable Connection Duration Billing for a service, configure the service name as a service under one or more billing plans in CSG2 billing configuration mode, then enter the basis second connect command in CSG2 service configuration mode.

Because Internet Message Access Protocol (IMAP) metering is byte-based, you cannot configure both meter include imap and basis fixed or basis second in the same service. Only basis byte is meaningful with meter include imap.

You cannot configure both meter exclude svc-idleand basis byte or basis fixed in the same service. Only basis second is meaningful with meter exclude svc-idle.

Examples The following example shows how to specify fixed billing for the CSG2 service MOVIES:

ip csg service MOVIES

basis fixed

The following commands are used to configure Service Duration Billing for the OFF_NET service.

ip csg service OFF_NET basis second
