This document describes a protocol for carrying accounting
information between a Network Access Server and a shared Accounting
Server. This document is the product of the Remote Authentication
Dial-In User Service Working Group of the IETF.

Implementation Note: This memo documents the RADIUS Accounting
protocol.  There has been some confusion in the assignment of port
numbers for this protocol.  The early deployment of RADIUS Accounting
was done using the erroneously chosen port number 1646, which
conflicts with the "sa-msg-port" service.  The officially assigned
port number for RADIUS Accounting is 1813.

This memo provides information for the Internet community.  This memo
does not specify an Internet standard of any kind.  Distribution of
this memo is unlimited.
