V!CAS
General
How can I retrieve accounting information (ISDN and TCP/IP)?
Various system messages are generated on the V!CAS based on different
events. Accounting messages are a subset of these messages. The V!CAS
can be configured to forward accounting messages (as well as other mes-
sages) to remote Log Hosts (PCs or UNIX systems). Two types of account-
ing messages are currently used.
• ISDN Accounting—contains information relating to ISDN connec-
tions such as duration of call, called and calling number, charging
information, and error causes.
• IP Accounting—contains information relating to IP sessions such
as source and destination addresses, IP protocol and port numbers,
session duration, and amount of traffic sent/received.
Before you begin
To forward accounting messages to a remote Log host all you need is:
• The IP address of the LogHost.
Configure it
LAN Interfaces
Turn on IP accounting for each LAN interface you want the V!CAS to
generate IP accounting messages for.
