and exiting the captive portal. Accounting is the method of collecting and sending security server
information for billing, auditing, and reporting user data (such as captive portal start and stop
times), executed commands (such as PPP), number of packets and number of bytes. Accounting
enables wireless network administrators to track captive portal services users are consuming.

settings back to the last saved configuration.

within the captive portal.

Enable RADIUS
Accounting
Select the Enable RADIUS Accounting option to use an external RADIUS
resource for AAA accounting for the captive portal. When the radio
button is selected, a AAA Policy field displays. This setting is disabled by
default.
Enable Syslog
Accounting
Select this option to log information about the use of remote access
services by users using an external syslog resource. This information is
of great assistance in partitioning local versus remote users. Remote
user information can be archived to an external location for periodic
network and user administration. This feature is disabled by default.
Syslog Host
Use the drop-down menu to determine whether an IP address or a host
name is used as a syslog host. The IP address or host name of an
external server resource is required to route captive portal syslog events
to that destination.
Syslog Port
Define the numerical syslog port to route traffic with the external syslog
server. The default is 514.
