To configure AA accounting file export
Purpose
Perform this procedure to configure the export of AA accounting statistics to files on NFM-P main or auxiliary server stations.

Perform this procedure only during a scheduled maintenance period.
Note: If the statistics are to be exported to a main server, and the NFM-P system is redundant, you must perform the procedure on each main server in the system, and must perform the procedure on the standby main server station first.
