Chapter 3 Cisco Access Registrar Scripts

Using Cisco AR Scripts

AltigaOutgoingScript

AltigaOutgoingScript maps Altiga attributes from Cisco Access Registrar’s global attribute space to the appropriate Altiga-proprietary attributes.

ANAAAOutgoing

ANAAAOutgoing can be referenced from either the client or vendor outgoing scripting point to be used in HRPD/EV-DO networks where Cisco Access Registrar is the Access Network (AN) AAA server. ANAAAOutgoing checks to see if the response contains the Callback-Id attribute. If the response contains the Callback-Id attribute and the value is less than 253 characters, ANAAAOutgoing prefixes a zero (0) to the value. For example, it changes "123" into "0123." The ANAAAOutgoing script always returns REX_OK.

AscendIncomingScript

AscendIncomingScript maps Ascend-proprietary attributes to Cisco Access Registrar’s global attribute space.

AscendOutgoingScript

AscendOutgoingScript maps Ascend attributes from Cisco Access Registrar’s global attribute space to the appropriate Ascend-proprietary attributes.

AuthorizePPP

AuthorizePPP is referenced from either the use record for users who’s sessions are always PPP or from the from the script AuthorizeService, which checks the request to determine which service is desired. This script merges in the Profile named "default-PPP-users" into the response dictionary.

AuthorizeService

AuthorizeService is referenced from user record for users who’s sessions might be PPP, SLIP or Telnet depending on how they are connecting to the NAS. This script checks the request to determine which service is desired. If it is telnet, it calls the script AuthorizeTelnet. If it is PPP, it calls the script AuthorizePPP. If it is SLIP, it calls the script AuthorizeSLIP. If it is none of these, it rejects the request.

AuthorizeSLIP

AuthorizeSLIP is referenced from either the user record for users who’s sessions are always SLIP or from the from the script AuthorizeService, which checks the request to determine which service is desired. This script merges in the Profile named "default-SLIP-users" into the response dictionary.
