    <tt>Hello,<br>
      <br>
      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).<br>
      <br>
      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: <br>

                            <div>Hi,<br>

                            I wanted to confirm if radius accounting
                            requests are generated on a successful
                            transaction or it can be generated on a
                            received BYE only. To elaborate my question
                            you can look at 2 diagrams below. Is first
                            scenario correct based on RFC&#39;s? My next
                            question is that if scenario A is correct
                            then how can we account the call if say user
                            B has gone offline and we do not receive 200
                            OK of the BYE sent? <br>
                            <br>
                            Can we send a manual accounting request to
                            Radius with acc_aaa_request in accounting
                            module?<br>
