Hi Florian,

Well, two ways, via RADIUS or SNMP ?

RADIUS:
Simply add the radius accounting configuration with stop and start message
support under the aaa config.
This will send a start message with counters = 0 when a user has logged on
and a message when they log off with time connected and bytes in and out.
If you want to force them off then in RADIUS you can set the session max
time.
Billing/Accounting packaging of these records dependant on your RADIUS
software.

SNMP:
Each user creates an ifindex oid that you can match the connected username
against and the poll for the bytes in and out, will not have connected time
and you can lose billable bytes due to the polling interval missing the
disconnection block of bytes.
This is better for providing a graph of their time online for downloads etc

A combination of the two would provide the best user experience as they get
an accurate bill via RADIUS but can look via an online web page using maybe
MRTG/RRDTOOL at the way their time online was used if they query their bill.

Hi,

we have a cisco 3725 for dialin users.

How can I monitor what bandwidth, throughput and so one is available for
each of the users?

Thanks
Florian
