Use this screen to configure the billing profiles that defines the maximum Internet access time and
charge per time unit. Click Configuration > Billing > Billing Profile to open the following screen.
Accounting
Method
Select Time to Finish to allow each user a one-time login. Once the user logs in, the
system starts counting down the pre-defined usage even if the user stops the Internet
access before the time period is finished. If a user disconnects and reconnects before the
allocated time expires, the user does not have to enter the user name and password to
access the Internet again.
Select Accumulation to allow each user multiple re-login until the time allocated is used
up. The UAG accounts the time that the user is logged in for Internet access.
User idle
timeout
The UAG automatically disconnects a computer from the network after a period of
inactivity. The user may need to enter the username and password again before access to
the network is allowed.
If you select Accumulation, specify the idle timeout between 1 and 60 minutes.
