Multi-Tech Systems MVPGSM-2 manual Radius Screen Field Definitions, Retransmissions field

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 GSM. The MultiVOIP GSM software logs data about many aspects of the call traffic going through the MultiVOIP GSM. The RADIUS Attributes screen lets you pick which aspects will be included in the accounting reports sent to the RADIUS server.
