[AusNOG] {Disarmed} Radius Interim Update Interval

Wed Sep 3 15:00:28 EST 2014

Sorry but ‘depends’ on the situation….

I’ve had situations where we wanted to enforce bandwidth limits on wifi networks and wanted to send CoA back to the wifi controllers when certain thresholds have been violated. We used the lowest interim value of 5 minutes.

If it’s purely for counting traffic, then probably higher is better.

If there are a very high number of concurrent sessions, you will most likely make it even higher to reduce the load on the server.

Lowest I’ve done is 5 minutes, largest I’ve seen is many hours. Nowadays I’m a fan of a 15 minute inform.

Cheers,

Hi All,

I’m doing some work with freeradius at the mo and looking at our accounting interim update interval, We have ours set low but I thought I’d ask the group and see what intervals if any others use for radius based traffic accounting

Cheers
