1¡¢As the function of Accounting RPT is to notify the PDP of changes in the
PEP(Per PEP supports many Client-types,and there are many sessions),Why
there is Client Handle Object in the RPT message£¿

>>> djr The client-SI objects in the Accounting RPT are specific to a Client
Type - just like the client-SI objects differ in the REQ and DEC, RPT for
the outsourcing and provisioning client types.

2¡¢When the PEP can send the Accounting RPT? After it had received a CAT
£¨client-type != 0£©message? or After it had sent first solicited RPT?

>> djr For COPS-PR accounting type report, the request state which is
identified by the Handle must be established to send the RPT. This would
have involved a solicited RPT message being sent by the PEP to the PDP. 

PEP       PDP
---REQ----->
<--DEC----
---RPT OK--> solicited
.
.
--RPT Acct--> 

Thanks for you help!
