[RP-PPPoE] Acct-Interim-Interval

[Tianu Mihai]

What radius server are you using ? If it's FreeRadius double check your 
sql queries /  config options.

Also bear in mind that PPPD needs to be patched with gigawords support, 
otherwise when your client's session exceeds 4Gb the counters will go to 0.
( link to the pppd patch for gigawords support 
http://www.nuclearcat.com/files/gigawords-v3.patch ). [ it worked with 
2.4.4 / 2.4.5 for me ]
With the above patch the ppp interface will reset the counter but the 
radius accounting record will reflect correctly  the  traffic of the 
session.

Also I advise you to use pppd-2.4.5 because there is a bug which can 
cause duplicate interim accounting messages. ( see:  
http://git.ozlabs.org/?p=ppp.git;a=commit;h=638647916bb20f23221b0fd5fd6a8bb79a020093
