No, it cannot do that. It has similar logic but only based on NasPortID and Username. You cannot specifiy what attributes you want this to happen with.   Brad Johnson   Systems Administrator     Local Link Network Operations     From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ramsey Abu-Absi Sent: Wednesday, May 19, 2004 3:47 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [VOPRadius] globalpops   Hi Cary, Thanks - you make a valid point; perhaps I was a bit harsh in my earlier messages.  Their ghosting policy is as you describe.  However, my frustration has been that although they are letting the ghosted user log in, they are getting a reject from my server because my server does not know that this is in fact happening.  If they could send a stop record first, then the problem would be solved. Now this brings up a question I hadn't thought of before:  Can VOP perform the same logic (i.e. check the called-from number, and if it is the same as the active session, allow the user to log in)?  This would also provide us with a fix. Given that at least two of us are dealing with this, I'd be most appreciative if someone from Vircom wouldn't mind weighing in on this.  Otherwise, I'll contact support.

If they say “we sent it” and they don’t know why its not getting to us, its still their problem in my opinion (their service model).   Brad Johnson   Systems Administrator     Local Link Network Operations         From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Gene DuCharme Sent: Wednesday, May 19, 2004 11:37 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [VOPRadius] globalpops   We use them and set up as (other-no security)   And yes we have had some problems with radius not receiving the stop packet.  When I talked directly with Corey Pops at Global Pops he explained if you try to stay with their teir 1 system you will have less problems with ghosting.  Although I have come in in the morning and found several customers ghosted who I know do not stay on 1000 or more minutes.   I just checked my logs and they customers are being logged.     High Speed Internet at it's Best   Gene DuCharme Owner Inland North West Internet 401 S.

I have client definitions setup and have tried with “other” and “Radius Server” and authentication is working however, I get no radius errors when a bad login is used, nor do I get an entry in onlineusers when a good login is used and gets connected.   Also, does globalpops pass on stop packets for users they detect as a ghost … or am I going to have ghost issues with them?   Brad Johnson   Systems Administrator     Local Link Network Operations       * * * C O N F I D E N T I A L I T Y S T A T E M E N T * * * This E-MAIL message and any accompanying documents contain confidential information intended for a specific individual and purpose.
