minutes
: Real-time accounting interval, which is a multiple of 3 in the range 3 to 60
minutes.
Description
Use the
timer realtime-accounting
command to configure a real-time accounting
interval.
Use the
undo timer realtime-accounting
command to restore the default setting.
By default, the real-time accounting interval is 12 minutes.
Note that:
z
Real-time accounting interval is necessary for real-time accounting. After an
interval value is set, the switch transmits the accounting information of online
users to the TACACS accounting server at intervals of this value.
z
The setting of real-time accounting interval depends somewhat on the
performance of the switch and the TACACS server: A shorter interval requires
higher device performance. You are therefore recommended to adopt a longer
interval when there are a large number of users (more than 1000, inclusive). The
following table recommends the real-time accounting intervals for different
numbers of users.
