- ``accounting`` - the accounting service.
-Configuration of services is divided into two parts:
+At the service level, three sections can be configured:
- Servers that define RADIUS services that the library is expected to
contact. Each server may have the following items specified:
It specifies an evaluation expression on the DHCP query packet.
Currently this is restricted to the access service.
+ Attributes are supported only for the access service.
+
+- The ``peer-updates`` boolean flag controls whether lease updates coming from
+ an active High-Availability (HA) partner should result in an accounting
+ request. This may be desirable to remove duplicates if HA partners are
+ configured to send request to the same RADIUS server. The flag is enabled by
+ default and only supported by the accounting service. The lease
+ synchronization process at the startup of an HA node does not trigger a RADIUS
+ accounting request, regardless of the value of this flag.
+
For example, to specify a single access server available on localhost
that uses ``"xyz123"`` as a secret, and tell Kea to send three additional
attributes (``User-Password``, ``Connect-Info``, and ``Configuration-Token``),
to the HA relationship this command pertains to. This parameter can be omitted if the
server receiving this command has only one HA relationship in the configuration.
-The `origin` is used to select the HA service for which the receiving server should
+The ``origin`` parameter is used to select the HA service for which the receiving server should
enable the DHCP service when it receives this notification. This is the same origin the
sending server used previously to disable the DHCP service before synchronization.
