meter increment

To specify the increments for debiting quota by the CSG2 upon completion of a service configured for Service Duration Billing, use the meter increment command in CSG2 service configuration mode. To restore the default behavior, use the no form of the command.

meter increment value

no meter increment value

Syntax Description	value		Increment, in seconds, for debiting quota upon completion of a
			service configured for Service Duration Billing. For example, to
			enable the CSG2 to charge quota per minute instead of per second,
			specify meter increment 60.
			The range is from 1 to 65535. The default value is 1.
Defaults	The default increment is 1 second.
Command Modes	CSG2 service configuration

Usage Guidelines
	rounded up to the nearest integer multiple of the increment value when the Service Stop is sent. For an
	increment value of 60, the CSG2 does not round up 120 seconds of network usage; however, the CSG2
	does round up, say, 163 seconds of network usage to 180 quadrans before it calculates total usage for
	reporting in the Service Stop.
	Note	The rounding-up of network usage is not reflected in calculations for the Usage
		Tag-Length-Value (TLV) in Service Reauthorization Requests.

The increment value is considered when determining whether sufficient quota exists for granting network access for a session. For instance, if the increment is 60, the network usage is 50, and the balance is 10, network access is permitted. However, if the increment is 60, the network usage is 70, and the balance is 10, network access is not permitted because the balance is not sufficient to satisfy the entire increment (that is, a minimum of 1 minute of quota would be required to allow access for a portion of the minute).
