.SH "NAME"
rc_acct_async \- Sends an accounting request to every configured accounting server without waiting for a reply.
.SH SYNOPSIS
.nf
.B #include <radcli/>
.sp
\fBint rc_acct_async\fP(
    \fBrc_handle   *\fP\fIrh\fP,
    \fBuint32_t     \fP\fInas_port\fP,
    \fBVALUE_PAIR  *\fP\fIsend\fP
);
.fi
.SH DESCRIPTION
.PP 
Selects the server list the same way rc_acct() does (acctserver, or authserver under TLS/DTLS). Unlike rc_acct()/rc_aaa(), which stop at the first server that replies and fail over to the next only after a timeout, this sends to every configured server unconditionally, since there is no reply to judge success or failure by. Intended for best-effort notifications such as an Accounting-Stop sent while an application is shutting down and cannot afford to block.
.SH PARAMETERS
.TP
.B rh
a handle to parsed configuration. 

.TP
.B nas_port
the physical NAS port number to include (may be zero). 

.TP
.B send
VALUE_PAIR list of attributes to send; NAS-Port and Acct-Delay-Time are filled in as with rc_acct().

Avoid using this structure directly. Use rc_avpair_get_uint32() for integer/IPv4/date values, rc_avpair_get_in6() for IPv6 addresses and prefixes, rc_avpair_get_raw() for string/binary values, and rc_avpair_get_attr() to read the attribute type and ID. To iterate the list use rc_avpair_next(). Free the entire list with rc_avpair_free().

.SH RETURN VALUE
.PP
OK_RC (0) if the packet was handed to the socket layer for at least one server, ERROR_RC if no accounting servers are configured or the send failed for all of them.
