IP accounting
HG 1500 saves information about transferred data for the purposes of IP connection account-
ing.
Accounting data is saved for:
●
PPP connections via SCN
●
DSL connections
●
Routing via the LAN2 Ethernet interface
The following information is saved:
●
Data volume (sent and received)
●
IP addresses (sender and recipient)
●
Port number of the recipient
●
TCP or UDP protocol ID
●
Time (start of transfer and last activity)
●
For PPP connections: Address and station number of PPP peer
Reading the Accounting Data
The Accounting Server (ACC) saves the data in the gateway. This data can be read out by the
IP Accounting Client – an application on a PC – by means of a TCP connection, and then pro-
cessed - for billing, for example. The IP accounting
client is a supplementary product; instructions for its use are described in the accompanying
documentation.
The IP Accounting Client must be connected to the gateway via a permanent IP connection.
To ensure data protection, a user name and password must be entered before the read-out. It
addition, it is also possible to specify that reading is only
possible from certain IP addresses.
IP Accounting must be activated and the connection parameters set for the IP Accounting Cli-
ent before it can be used. Both configurations are described in the HG 1500 Configuration Man-
ual.

For poor connections, we recommend using the MPPC algorithm, which is very use-
ful for resynchronization.
Further information on both algorithms can be found in RFC 1974 (STAC) or RFC
2118 (MPPC)
