Chapter 3 Cisco Access Registrar Scripts

Using Cisco AR Scripts

ParseServiceHints

ParseServiceHints is referenced from the NAS IncomingScript scripting point. Check to see if we are given a hint of the service type or the realm. If so, set the appropriate attributes in the request or radius dictionary to record the hint and rewrite the user name to remove the hint.

The Tcl version of this script is named tParseServiceHints.

ParseTranslationGroupsByCLID

ParseTranslationGroupsByCLID is referenced from the policy engine to determine the incoming and outgoing translation groups based on CLID set in the policy engine so that the attributes can be added and/or filtered out by the configuration data set in MCD.

ParseTranslationGroupsByDNIS

ParseTranslationGroupsByDNIS is referenced from the policy engine to determine the incoming and outgoing translation groups based on realm set in the policy engine so that the attributes can be added/filtered out by the configuration data set in MCD.

ParseTranslationGroupsByRealm

ParseTranslationGroupsByRealm is referenced from the policy engine to determine the incoming and outgoing translation groups based on the realm set in the policy engine. ParseTranslationGroupsByRealm allows the attributes to be added or filtered out by the configuration data set in MCD.

UseCLIDAsSessionKey

UseCLIDAsSessionKey is used to specify that the Calling-Station-Id attribute should be used as the session key to correlate requests for the same session. This is a typical case for 3G mobile user session correlation.

USRIncomingScript

USRIncomingScript maps USR-proprietary attributes to Cisco Access Registrar’s global attribute space.

USRIncomingScript-IgnoreAccountingSignature

USRIncomingScript-IgnoreAccountingSignature maps USR-proprietary attributes to Cisco Access Registrar’s global attribute space and sets a flag to ignore the signature on Accounting-Request packets. Earlier versions of the USR RADIUS client did not correctly sign Accounting-Request packets.
