Well that is the Authenticating, Authorising done and the Service
provisioning sorted. Now it's time to see if I can get anything useful
out of the BTS for Account purposes.
Any pointer Ben? Ideally the customer would like to see session bandwidth
usage and all those normal kind of stats - will the BTS provide anything
remotely resembling this look at that Acct log files on the FreeRadius the
only information seems to be login info (but at least the MAC is provided
in the Calling-Station-id!) ? :-/
Thanks in advance

Actually authorization in their hybrid 16d system that Steve is using is
very seamless. We've looked at many solutions and in most
configuration/service assignment revolves around some kind of custom NMS
that is a complete kludge or require service levels to be configured in
each
MS individually. Supplying the services via RADIUS is a decent
semi-standardized approach that helps with centralization.
I think they could stand to improve the attribute structure a bit as the
long string is a fun regular expression exercise when you work for
standardization. Then again, you should see the DHCP option string that
is
used to configure their ATA adapters... heh
It's really their ASN-GW that deviates... a bit... from the standard. And
the fact that they have a strange attitude toward IOT. We asked and were
essentially told that the FR team would have to come crawling to Tel
Aviv on
their bellies and beg for the chance to be forced to pay for IOT testing.
Helpfully pointing out that IOT testing would be a non-issue if the
established standard was followed wasn't met with much of a response.

Best advice you are going to get here is: "avoid Alvarion if possible".
