BBSM with no back end (Radius server)

[michael4702]

Hi,

On the Cisco web site the documentation tells me that you can use BBSM without a back end server.

It says i can use access codes.

Can someone tell me how this works?

Many thanks

Hi Mike,

Here is some info on the use of BBSM Access Codes;

Access Code Functions

The Access Code Management screens are designed to be used to issue access codes to clients. A local administrative computer is typically configured within the property, and the default home page of the browser is set to http://localhost:9488/accesscodes.

The BBSM Access Code Management provides three different functions:

Generate Codes

Edit Codes

Delete Codes

Generating Access Codes

This option provides the hotel manager or administrator with the ability to generate access codes from the BBSM Access Code Management startup web page. Access codes are generated for the end user for a specific date, bandwidth, and price (if applicable).

Access Code Management

The Access Code Management option under Operations on the Dashboard allows you to provide high-speed Internet access for meeting or conference rooms. It also allows you generate, edit, and delete access codes. This option also provides control and accountability for end users viewing access codes and retrieving transaction history.
