Accounting and billing database schema

The accounting and billing database schema is provided so that you can use a structured query language (SQL) reporting tool to audit and sort data. This tool is also used to generate queries and produce usage reports. The default database name is wgacct.

About the accounting and billing database schema

Note: Be careful when editing the wgacct database. If the data becomes corrupted, the best solution might be to turn off accounting and billing support. Then drop the wgacct tables, and then turn on accounting and billing support.
The information contained in AcctDiscInfo corresponds to packets and bytes transmitted over the link between the SafeLinx Server and the connected client. In contrast, AcctDataInfo contains information for both the original IP/PPP data packets and the fragmented or joined packets that are transmitted. To present this information when fragmentation or joining occur, entries are created in the packet data table as follows:
  • One entry for the IP/PPP data packets with the IP, Encrypted, Compressed, and Reduced field values set and the Frame and Transmit fields set to zero
  • Entries for one or more joined/fragmented packets with the Frame and Transmit fields set and the IP, Encrypted, Compressed, and Reduced field values set to zero

This means that the packet counts in the session table and packet data table for a user session might not agree. However, the session table BytesIn/BytesOut values match the packet data table TransmitSize totals for the user session.

For all tables that include the RDNType field, the type and its corresponding value are:
  • 0 - MobileNI
  • 1 - Datatac5000
  • 2 - Datatac6000
  • 3 - ModacomScr
  • 4 - ArdisX25
