[rbak-nsp] Ericsson Redback

[David Freedman]

The redback can use radius servers reachable from within the context or
via another named context on the box (usually the local context), we call
the second method "Global" AAA , you can choose which mechanism you use
through use of the "aaa authentication" directive in the context, I.e:

!
! Use RADIUS server reachable from HSI
!
context HSI
 aaa authentication subscriber radius
 radius server 1.2.3.4 key mykey

!


OR

!
! Use RADIUS server reachable from Local Context
!
context local
 radius server 1.2.3.4 key mykey

!
context HSI
 aaa authentication subscriber global
!
aaa global authentication subscriber radius context local
!




Is there any particular reason you need to put your prepaid users in
another context? There are sufficient mechanisms on this box to create a
prepaid environment for users when they share a context with others (I.e
radius driven ACLs, walled-gardens etc..), unless you have unique routing
requirements or a completely different radius platform I would stay from
using another context.

Dave.

Hi Friends,Can someone help out with this?

Currently I use the Redback BRAS for postpaid ADSL service, I am using two
RADIUS servers and in the Redback, I use tow contexts "local" and "ISP",
context local is for the RADIUS servers and context ISP for the ADSL
subscribers. I am about to start prepaid ADSL service and I have created a
new context (context HSI) for the prepaid RADIUS servers, what I want to
know now is do I create another context for the prepaid service and if I
have to how do I make the users use the prepaid RADIUS servers.Note that I
meant the initial configurations for postpaid service were done before I
joined the coy
