Hi Expert,

Small Query, Please help me.

What if i send 2 COA.? 1st COA idle timeout set to 120. After 90 sec i'm sending 2nd COA idle timeout 60.

What should be happen.. What is the expected behavior?

 

Regards,

Annamalai

In the going releases that we have, the 2 requests are processed individually and sequentially.

I can't verify right now because my lab is undergoing power maintenance but it depends on whether the idle time of the session is reset upon idle-timeout application.

if the timer is NOT reset, then on the next validation cycle the session will expire because 90>60.

if the timer IS reset, then after the NEXT 60 seconds the session will get disconnected.

if you do show subscr ses fil id <id> detail you can see the idle time of the session and whether the sw resets the timer on application (I didnt think it did that, nor do I see it in the code resetting it on timer change, but may be overlooking something).

Thanks Xander, 

It seems the timer is not getting reset. But my question is if the admin changing the COA 120 to 60 then the user should be disconnected after the 60 sec form the COA 60 configuration.

One more question? What would be the impact if we reset the timer.

Could i get the RFC or pre document where this I can verify.

Annamalai

if the session is already idle for >60 seconds and the idle timer is not reset after the reconfig then the next time the idle time is evaluated (now 60) then the session will get disconnected.

there is no RFC that defines this; whether the idle timer needs to be reset on reconfiguration of it.

if you like to check : ppp rfc 1661 or radius rfc 2685

Dear Xander,

Can you please suggest if there are any limitations, restrictions or performance impact for the asr9001 xr5.3.3/5.3.4 running ~8k RSP based subscribers with dhcp FSOL in case of all sessions' attributes are provisioned via Radius and no dynamic-templates are present in config of bng.

IP/GW/MASK/VRF/LOOPBACK/IDLE-TIMEOUT/Parameterized QoS/SPAN/Redirect etc.

Thanks in advance

hey tom! 

8k rp based sessions is very well below the max scale of the 9001, so from that standpointnot a problem. I never tested/seen a deployment/configuration without an activation of dynamic template, so inclined to recommend to activate some template with minimal configuration (that can be overrided by whatever you want to pass from radius of course!

cheer!

Hi Xander,

Thanks for a quick answer. One more question regarding on the fly configuration change, so are there any cavities/restrictions to add secondary ip address to subscribers' unnumbered loopback for the count growth while a lot of users are acting on bng? And the second case when we need to add some more lines to the already attached dynamic-template?

Tom

changes can be made, but will result in some background work (to reconfigure the existing sessions) and may drop as a result of it.

so the changes can be done, but recommend to do that in a "down time" and restarting all sessions (or down all sessions first, make changes) and bring everything back up.

So adding more secondary IP addresses also touches existing sessions already bound to loopback? Thanks.

I hope this thread is still somehow active..

 

What happens when remote ID is inserted on a node before BNG, and a Q-in-Q tags rewrite is taking place. Can remote ID still refer to S-TAG & C-TAG before any rewrite, POP, or any manipulation in general ?

 

TIA

Hi,

 

Hopefully you'll be able to help me with the following. Is it possible to format a DHCP field that comes in in HEX format so that you send it to the radius server as ASCII and truncate it?

 

In particular I'm referring to the remote-id-tag that for example comes in as "000007db302f332f30", which translates to U0/3/0 in ASCII. I need to be able to send "0/3/0" ASCII string to the radius server instead of 000007db302f332f30 (and cut the U from the ascii translation). Is this even possible?

 

Regards,

c.
