Hi,
Again, I would like to argue that, unless you are telling me that if a
user from our University is going to use eduroam in Australia than I am
going to receive a bill.
No, of course not.
Are Australian universities charging each other form roaming? If not,
then I ask once again: what business do I have in knowing how many
bytes my user pushed while visiting Australia?
You may not want to receive this information, but nothing stops others
from sending it. You can of course discard the accounting info before
seeing it. That is not at all limited to Australia - if you come to
the RESTENA Offices in Luxembourg, it may very well happen to that
Accounting packets are generated and sent back to your IdP.
The eduroam policy only says about this: forwarding accounting packets
needs to be supported by the infrastructure. And since we support it,
we can't ignore it.
Concerning the FR support for doing the right thing in accounting -
sounds good. Even if accounting records are not proxied but stored
locally, this would be useful anyway.
I'm delighted to hear that! Since you have a working CUI installation
anyway, would you be willing to write appropriate SQL queries so that
we can see it in action?
Greetings,
Stefan
