VSA fields in file accounting

[pandiarajan.it21]

I am going through CDR Accounting for Cisco IOS Voice Gateways. http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/ios/voice/cdr/developer/guide/cdrdev.html.

Can we get vendor specific attributes (VSA) fields in file accounting by default or is it requires any special configuration?

Thanks,

Pandian.

Hi Pandian,

Table 12 of the same link provides details of which VSA was introduced in which IOS

http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/ios/voice/cdr/developer/guide/cdrdev/cdrdefs.html#86152

These attributes would be available by default as per the IOS release.

Thanks Manish, 

So, these fields are available on RADIUS and File Accounting correct? I thought these fields are available only for RADIUS.

Because the following confuses me in the same document you referred. "Use this table when you configure the RADIUS server to understand which VSAs are supported,"

Hi Pandian,

This is for reference purpose when you configure Radius support on a voice gateway. You need to configure as per the example "Cisco IOS Voice Gateway as RADIUS Client: Example". It shows how to configure RADIUS support and enable the use of VSAs on the Cisco voice gateway.

Thanks Manish,

We are not implementing RADIUS, we are going to implement File Accounting. So my question is will these fields are available for File Accounting too?

Hi Pandian,

Table 4 Detailed File Accounting Attributes of the Configuring File Accounting doc has the details of the VSAs available with File Accounting. Look at the footnote of the table for more details.
