Figure 15-2 Interface and File Management for ATM Accounting
A file used for data collection actually corresponds to two memory buffers on the multiservice route
processor. One buffer is actively saving data, while the second is passive and ready to have its data either
retrieved using Trivial File Transport Protocol (TFTP) or overwritten when the currently active file
reaches its maximum capacity. Alternatively, the file can be written to a remotely connected PC over a
TCP connection.
Configuring Global ATM Accounting
The ATM accounting feature must be enabled to start gathering ATM accounting virtual circuit call setup
and use data. The ATM accounting feature runs in the background and captures configured accounting
data for VC changes such as calling party, called party, or start time and connection type information for
specific interfaces to a file.
Caution Enabling ATM accounting could slow the basic operation of the ATM switch router.
Note Even when ATM accounting is disabled globally, other ATM accounting commands, both global and for
individual interfaces, remain in the configuration file.
To enable the ATM accounting feature, use the following command in global configuration mode:
