Acct-Status-Type Account Status Type has four values: Accounting On,
Accounting Off, Start and Stop.
An Accounting On message is sent when the Prestige starts the
RADIUS Accounting service. An Accounting Off message is sent
when the Prestige ends the service.
A Start message is sent when a user session begins. A Stop
message is sent when the session ends.

and Stop record, indicating that these records correspond to the
same session.
