For Virtual Port Hosting. Restricting the clients for a specific interface can be done but you need Telco to provide you DNIS numbers specific to those ports/interfaces. The only problem here is you cannot verify if the user connected really belongs to your customer or not. The other way around this is you can use certain radius servers that support VPP which will ensure that your client gets exactly the same number of ports that he is assigned for. This is useful for you could have your customers say X number of ports and these ports can be spread across various chassis and you would still be able authenticate and share your ports. TC does provide accounting even if the users are authenticated locally, not really sure if you need username and password to be local for your pre-paid service. Pre-paid service can be setup using Radius and given a choice I will use radius for Pre-Paid service. - V ----- Original Message ----- From: "Gen Camiling" <gcamiling@imvi.com.ph> To: <usr-tc@mailman.xmission.com> Sent: Friday, July 05, 2002 8:59 PM Subject: [USR-TC] restricting access to specif interface
Got about two scenarios in here that need some suggestions and expert advice from the list:
a. I will be doing Virtual Port Hosting services and i would like to restrict my clients' access to a specified number of interfaces as agreed upon. TC-1000 has 14 HiperDSP,HARC,HNMC with the latest codes on it. I would only allow him access to 3 HiperDSPs. Client will be given pilot number to dial-in for their access. Question: 1. How do i restrict the access of this particular client only to the given interfaces. And if a none allowed username dialed into those interfaces it would be rejected, call will be dropped?
Im looking into the "set swithed interfaces" and "set modem" commands just not sure if it will do the trick.
b. What if my client will be implementing pre-paid internet cards services, if i will implement a username/password on the interfaces, how will the accounting for these pre-paid users get tracked since in my understanding (please do correct me if it's wrong) if authentication was done locally TC does not provide accounting logs to the configured RADIUS server.
