umm, this may sound like a dumb question, but how is the nmc setup to log radius call data. I've been looking around in our nmc's and the only sort of logging that seems to be available is syslog. Do you just set the nmc to syslog all of its info to a radius server? and then have the radius server insert data into sql table, or did I miss something along the way?
Yes to both, the NMC sends it as a Radius accounting packet. That means for every disconnect you have two Radius accounting packets -- one from the ARC, one from the NMC. Matching the two records up after the fact and making sense of it is then your problem, and putting it in a SQL database made it a bit easier for me...
