Residential subscriber configuration
Overview
The XML API uses the ressubscr package to create and manage residential subscribers. A residential subscriber is an end recipient of multiple service offering, such as VoD, VoIP, or other triple play applications. A residential subscriber host, which is sometimes called a subscriber host or a host, is an end device, such as a computer or set-top box that connects to the provider network and receives the service traffic.
In the context of the XML API, a residential subscriber, which is sometimes called a subscriber, has a unique identifier that associates a group of end-user devices with policies. A subscriber can be associated with multiple SAPs on multiple NEs, and a customer can be associated with multiple subscribers.
To configure residential subscriber management on the NFM-P, create and configure the following components, depending on the service delivery model:
A host requires subscriber-profile and SLA-profile associations to access the network. Profiles define service attributes for hosts such as scheduling, accounting, security, and traffic prioritization by application type. A profile uses existing NFM-P policy definitions and allows the customization of policy parameters using override values.
See “Residential subscriber management” in the NSP NFM-P Classic Management User Guide for more information about residential subscriber management, including prerequisites and workflows.
