RADIUS Screen Field Definitions
Description
When checked, the MultiVOIP will access the accounting functionality of the RADIUS server.
IP address of the RADIUS server that handles accounting (billing) for the current MultiVOIP unit.
TDM time slot at which RADIUS accounting information will be transmitted and received.
If the MultiVOIP sends out a packet to the RADIUS server and doesn't receive a response in the retransmit interval, it will retransmit that packet again and wait the retransmit interval again for a response. How many times it does this is determined by the setting in the Number of Retransmissions field.
Client encryption key for the current VOIP unit.
Gives access to RADIUS Attributes screen. On Attributes screen, one can specify the parameters to be tallied by the RADIUS server for accounting (usually billing) purposes.
The RADIUS dialog box has a secondary dialog box, RADIUS Attributes, that allows you to customize accounting information sent to the RADIUS server by the MultiVOIP. The MultiVOIP software logs data about many aspects of the call traffic going through the MultiVOIP. The RADIUS Attributes screen lets you pick which aspects will be included in the accounting reports sent to the RADIUS server.
