[OpenSIPS-Users] OpenSIPs Radius Accounting.

[Bogdan-Andrei Iancu]

Hello,

All accounting triggers (START/STOP or CDR based) are on replies, so 
when the transaction is completed. Of course, all transactions are 
terminated in OpenSIPS  - either by received replies, either by a 
timeout (if no reply received).

If you want to generate the STOP event at BYE request time (versus BYE 
reply time), you can manually do it from script via the acc function 
acc_db_request() (instead of setting the acc flag and letting the acc 
module to generate automatically the event) - the generate event is the 
same. See:
         http://www.opensips.org/html/docs/modules/1.9.x/acc.html#id294346
