View

Default level

2: System level

Parameters

minutes: Real-time accounting interval in minutes, zero or a multiple of 3 in the range of 3 to 60. A value of zero means "Do not send online user accounting information to the HWTACACS server."

Description

Use timer realtime-accounting to set the real-time accounting interval.

Use undo timer realtime-accounting to restore the default.

By default, the real-time accounting interval is 12 minutes.

For real-time accounting, a NAS must transmit the accounting information of online users to the HWTACACS accounting server periodically. This command is for setting the interval.

Consider the performance of the NAS and the HWTACACS server when you set the real-time accounting interval. A shorter interval requires higher performance. Use a longer interval when there are a large number of users (more than 1000, inclusive).
