I need to setup the odd # dsp cards to use the 1st router card and the even # dsp cards to use the 2nd router card. My second task is on each card I've been asked to setup a separate IP address pool. Example: DSP card in slot 1, assign an address pool starting with 192.168.0.1 that has 24 addresses. slot 3, assign an address pool starting with 192.168.0.25 that has 24 addresses. And so on, so forth. Any takers on this issue? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, jim _______________________________________________ Jim, The easiest way is to setup DNIS authentication. BUT each trunk NEEDS it's own phone number!!!! If you do not do it this way, I do not believe you can bind an ip pool to a DSP. I have looked, and tried, and failed! Here is the idea. Phone Number - TRUNK 1 - 321-555-1212 Phone Number - TRUNK 2 - 321-555-1213 With DNIS auth, build two users -> 1212 / 1213. That is if your telco passes 4 DNIS digits. Create private pools for your IP POOLS. Then with-in the each DNIS user, assign them to an IP POOL. This is the cistron dictionary attribute: USR-Framed_IP_Address_Pool_Name = "special" What it should do is to authenticate against RADIUS using the DNIS, and have the POOL assigned. Then it will authenticate the user. It would be required to do a two Step Authentication in order to first Authenticate the DNIS Digits & Then secondly to Authenticate the user. 1.Set the Switched Interface or the Modem groups On the HiPerARC: add modem_group dnisgroup1 interface<interfaces> enabled yes set modem_group dnisgroup1 dnis_authentication required set modem_group dnisgroup1 dnis_auth_type dnis set modem_group dnisgroup1 dnis_auth_time before_answer ( Depending on what the telco is sending) Set switched interface<interface>dnis_auth_time before_answer If the TELCO is sending 2 DNI Digits to indicate 01 for Calls have Caller ID blocked & 00 for calls having Caller ID unblocked. If you want the Caller ID blocked Calls to be dropped & the Caller ID unblocked calls to be sent to the modems then create a user 00as add user 00 password<xyz>type network ( Make sure you give a password if not this will not work) Now whenever a user calls in he will first be authenticated based on the DNI Digits & then he will be re authenticated by the radius if he is in the Radius or if he is in the hiper ARC he will be authenticated by the HiperARC. If the user has his CallerID blocked then TELCO will be passing 01.This will fail the first Authentication so the user will be dropped. Now if the user dials in with his CallerID unblocked so the TELCO will then pass 00 which will be Authenticated & so will proceed to the second Authentication by the RADIUS or the HIPER ARC depending on where the user is. If you do not want this, why not just change your IP pools to go in order? NO BREAKS! That is the most simplest way. I can see your reasoning to why you want it, but it may not be feasible with out adding multiple trunks!!
