Overview of Network Services
Network services are resources that enable subscriber and device provisioning. You organize your resources using predefined containers. Table 5-2 lists and describes the predefined resource containers.
Use the containers to organize the resources that you use on your network. BAC displays a list of the expected fields for each resource type, and you supply the values for the individual resource. For example, when you add a AAA server, you add values that describe its IP address, its owner (network service provider), the vendor whose RADIUS product you are implementing, hostname, password information, and port information.
As you organize and manage resources, BAC writes information to its database. It then uses this information to provide default values as you create administrative networks and network devices.
Organizing and Managing AAA Servers
AAA servers provide authentication, authorization, and accounting only in LAC, PTA, and LNS broadband aggregation scenarios. AAA (or RADIUS) servers receive subscriber connection requests through a router, which acts as a network access server (NAS). AAA servers authenticate users and return to the NAS the configuration information needed to deliver service to the subscriber.
BAC directly supports either the Cisco CNS Access Registrar server or the Interlink Merit AAA server. You can configure these servers as either remote or proxy servers. You link a proxy server to a remote server. You can add other AAA servers as proxy servers, if you then associate them with an Access Registrar or a Merit server.
About AAA Servers
When you create a AAA server, you define the fields listed in Table 5-3.
To Create a AAA Server
Create a AAA server to support RADIUS proxy configuration. This enables an administrator to configure a AAA server to act as a proxy client to other RADIUS servers or other kinds of authentication servers.
Before you add a AAA server to BAC, determine whether it is a remote server or a proxy server. It does not matter in what order you create the proxy server and the remote server. You link the two servers after you create them. When you are ready, log in to BAC.
To create a AAA server, follow these steps:
Step 1 Click the Network Services tab. The system displays the Network Services Inventory page in the content area of the main window.
Step 2 In the Object Selector, click AAA.
Step 3 In the main window, click Create. The system displays the Select Owners page.
The Select Owners page contains a dual column selection box, which you use to add and remove owners.
Step 4 In the Available Owners list box, choose the owner of the access list and click Add. BAC moves the owner to the Selected Owners list box.
Step 5 Click Next. The system displays the Create AAA page in the main window.
Step 6 Enter the AAA resource information, as defined in Table 5-3.
Note To enable BAC to update the AAA server automatically, check Update AAA. If you disable updates, you must process any updates manually.
To enable the AAA server to act as a proxy, check Proxy.
Step 7 When you are done, click Finish. The system redisplays the Network Services Inventory page in the main window.
Note To view the new AAA server, expand the AAA folder.
Step 8 If you are creating a remote server and a proxy server, repeat Steps 2 through 7 to add another server. Then, go to the "Associating a Proxy Server With a Remote Server" section.
Associating a Proxy Server With a Remote Server
You can configure a AAA server to act as a proxy server. The proxy server passes authentication requests to a remote server, which might be a AAA server or another type of authentication server; for example, an RSA server. You first use BAC to add both servers, then you create the link between them.
BAC supports two network topologies. In the first topology, the proxy server is located at wholesale network access provider where the BAC server can access it. The remote server is located at the retail service provider and is inaccessible to the BAC server due to a firewall. In this topology, BAC cannot configure the remote server, so the retail service provider must ensure it is configured to support a proxy server.
In the second topology, the proxy server and the remote server are located at the wholesale network access provider. In this topology, BAC configures both servers.
About Associating a Proxy Server
When you associate a proxy server with a remote server, you define the fields listed in Table 5-4.
To Associate a Proxy Server to a Remote Server
Before you associate a proxy server with a remote server, be aware of the following considerations:
•Be familiar with the characteristics of Access Registrar and Merit AAA servers; for example, Access Registrar allows one realm across multiple remote servers where Merit only allows one realm to one remote server.
•BAC supports only one level of linking proxy servers to remote servers; that is, you can link a proxy server only to a remote server, even if the proxy server can point to another proxy server.
•A server can function as either a proxy server or as a remote server, but it cannot function in both capacities.
To associate a proxy and a remote server, follow these steps:
Step 1 Click the Network Services tab. The system displays the Network Services Inventory page in the content area of the main window.
