Servers on an HFC Network
Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting Servers
Authentication, authorization, and accounting (AAA) servers are essential to the network, because they
typically monitor usage for subscriber billing and record keeping. AAA features call upon a RADIUS
security server to help authenticate and monitor users’ access.
VoIP Gateways and Gatekeepers
To support digitized voice transmission using Cisco IOS Release 12.0(5)T1 CMTS images, be sure to
include VoIP gateways and gatekeepers in your configuration. Cisco IOS Release 12.0(5)T1 supports
VoIP by using the H.323 protocol. VoIP gateways convert IP-based voice packets into standard PSTN
voice traffic, making the process of placing calls over the IP network transparent to users.
VoIP gatekeepers manage H.323-compliant gateways throughout the network. Gatekeepers also manage
traffic between their local cable system networks, as well as the networks of other VoIP gatekeepers.
VoIP SGCP Pass-Through
To support digitized voice transmission using Simple Gateway Control Protocol (SGCP), be sure to
include VoIP gateways and external call control elements (often referred to as call-agents) in your
configuration. Cisco IOS Release 12.0(6)T and later versions of Cisco IOS Release 12.0 T and
Cisco IOS Release 12.0(6)XR and later versions of Cisco IOS Release 12.0 X support VoIP
communication using the SGCP 1.1 protocol. Just as with H.323 systems, VoIP gateways in an SGCP
environment convert IP-based voice packets into standard PSTN voice traffic, making the process of
placing calls over the IP network transparent to users.
Call-agents manage SGCP-compliant gateways throughout the network, allowing them to engage in
common channel signaling (CCS) over a 64-kbps circuit emulation service (CES) circuit.
