About SCMP
•
Anonymous groups
An anonymous group is a specified IP range, possibly assigned a subscriber template (see
Anonymous Groups and Subscriber Templates, page 9-4
.)
SCMP associates each SCMP peer device with at least one anonymous group. SCMP generates
subscribers for this anonymous group when it detects traffic from the SCMP peer device that is not
mapped to any subscriber. SCMP assigns the SCMP peer manager-Id to this generated
anonymous-subscriber. If you have assigned a subscriber template to the group, the anonymous
subscribers generated have properties as defined by that template. If you have not assigned a
subscriber template, the default template is used.
One SCE platform supports a maximum of 20 SCMP peer devices.
Connection Management
The SCMP attempts to maintain an open connection to each peer device.
The following figure illustrates the SCMP connection state functionality.

SCMP Connection State Functionality
The loss-of-sync timeout prevents the SCE platform from retaining sessions that are obsolete and whose
identity-keys have been replaced or moved to other sessions thus miss-classification risk is limited.
