	Table 12-3 Accounting Attributes
Field	Description
Acct-Status-Type	Account Status Type has four values: Accounting On,
	Accounting Off, Start and Stop.
	An Accounting On message is sent when the Prestige starts the
	RADIUS Accounting service. An Accounting Off message is sent
	when the Prestige ends the service.
	A Start message is sent when a user session begins. A Stop
	message is sent when the session ends.
Acct-Session-Id	Account Session Id is a unique number assigned to each
	session to make it easy to match the Start and Stop records in a
	detail file, and to eliminate duplicate records.
	Note that in the above example this value matches in the Start
	and Stop record, indicating that these records correspond to the
	same session.
User-Name	Specifies the user name.
NAS-Port	Refers to the Network Access Server (NAS), i.e., the Prestige,
	port used in the connection.
NAS-Port-DNIS	Refers to the called party’s directory number.
