The numbers assigned to Acct-Status-Type values are meaningless. You can't graph them, as they have no relationship to each other. I still don't understand why it's an issue.

RE: Radius attributes in SQL INSERT
Thx Numbers in the database are easier to understand for some programs which do whimsical operations and finally present data in a graphical way.

RE: Radius attributes in SQL INSERT
Hi For some purposes it is better to have numeric values in database. We have GUI which then presents data in user friendly fashion. OK. If I comment out attributes in dictionary, then everything will work for me. Is there any other way to do it without changing dictionary?

Yes. What's wrong with that? The default schema does NOT include a row for Acct-Status-Type. So if you're using it, then you've changed the schema and the SQL queries. The Acct-Status-Type attribute is an 'integer' type, but it's easier for people to use names, so the integers have names. See the dictionary files for details.
