UDR Format Configuration Mode Commands

 

The UDR Format Configuration Mode enables configuring User Detail Record (UDR) formats.

Important: The commands or keywords/variables that are available are dependent on platform type, product version, and installed license(s).

‌

format { MM/DD/YY-HH:MM:SS | MM/DD/YYYY-HH:MM:SS | YYYY/MM/DD-HH:MM:SS | YYYYMMDDHHMMSS | seconds }

Specifies the timestamp format.

localtime

Specifies the local time. By default, timestamps are displayed in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC).

{ bytes | pkts } { downlink | uplink }

Specifies bytes/packets sent/received from/by mobile.

priority priority

Specifies the position priority of the field within the UDR. Lower numbered priorities (across all attribute, event-label, and rule-variable) occur first.

priority must be an integer from 1 through 65535. Up to 50 position priorities (across all attribute, event-label, and rule-variable) can be configured.

Usage

Use this command to set the attributes and priority for UDR file format.

A particular field in UDR format can be entered multiple times at different priorities. While removing the UDR field using the no attribute command, you can either remove all occurrences of a particular field by specifying the field name or remove a single occurrence by additionally specifying the optional priority keyword.

Consider the following scenario. If the volume/time threshold interval is large enough (or disabled). At time t=0, 10 ICMP packets are sent, which takes 9 seconds. There is nothing for the next 100 seconds, and then again 10 ICMP packets are sent which takes 10 seconds, and then again nothing for next the 60 seconds and then the session is terminated.

In this scenario:

•	sn-start-time should be t = 0.

•	sn-end-time should be t = 0+9+100+10 (sn-end-time would be the last ICMP packet sent).

•

sn-duration should be sn-end-time minus sn-start-time, i.e. 0+9+100+10 – 0 = 119 seconds (since the ICMP flow would exist between the two intervals of sending ICMP packets, the sn-start-time would be that of the first packet of the flow and sn-end-time of the last packet (20th packet). Hence, sn-duration would take into account all the seconds between the first and last packet of the flow).

Example

The following is an example of this command:

attribute radius-user-name priority 12

end

Exits the current configuration mode and returns to the Exec mode.

event_label

Specifies the event label/identifier to be used as UDR attribute.

event_label must be an alphanumeric string of 1 through 63 characters.

priority priority

Specifies the Comma Separated Value (CSV) position of the attribute (label/identifier) in the UDR.

priority must be an integer from 1 through 65535.

Usage

Use this command to configure an optional event label/identifier as an attribute in the UDR and its position in the UDR.

Example

The following is an example of this command:

event-label radius_csv1 priority 23

exit

Exits the current mode and returns to the parent configuration mode.

Syntax

rule-variable rule_variable priority priority

no rule-variable rule_variable [ priority priority ]

no

If previously configured, removes the specified rule variable configuration.

rule-variable rule_variable

Specifies the rule variable for the UDR format.

rule_variable must be one of the following options:

•	bearer 3gpp2: Bearer-related configuration:

•

always-on

•

bsid

•	carrier-id

•

esn

•

ip-qos

•	ip-technology

•

meid

•	release-indicator

•

serv-MDN

•	service-option

•	session-begin

•	session-continue

Important: For more information on protocol-based rules see the ACS Ruledef Configuration Mode Commands chapter.

priority priority

Specifies the CSV position of the field (protocol rule) in the UDR.

priority must be an integer from 1 through 65535.

Usage

Use this command to specify what field appears in which order in the UDR.

A particular field in UDR format can be entered multiple times at different priorities. While removing the UDR field using the no rule-variable command, you can either remove all occurrences of a particular field by specifying the field name, or remove a single occurrence by additionally specifying the optional priority keyword.

Example

The following is an example of this command:

rule-variable bearer 3gpp2 bsid priority 36
