[OpenSER-Users] Radius accounting and Dialog

[Bogdan-Andrei Iancu]

Hi David,

This should work, if you manage to convince the UAC to periodically send 
some with-in the dialog requests.

When sending the BYE via MI command, you could use a local_route to 
catch the BYE and do accounting for it from the script.

Regards,
Bogdan
