Service Activation
Subscriber
A subscriber is a port and a VLAN that provides access to the network for specified
traffic with a specified Quality of Service (QoS). When you create a subscriber in IP
Service Manager, the ISM Provision server makes changes to the device configurations
to create the VLAN, Qos profiles, and access lists implied by your subscriber. There are
two types of subscribers, IP subscribers and IP range subscribers.
IP subscribers correspond to a port and a VLAN with an assigned IP subnet for routing
purposes. The service provided through this port can support hosts configured with IP
addresses that lie in the VLAN’s subnet.
IP range subscribers correspond to a port and a sub-VLAN. This sub-VLAN is
associated with a super-VLAN and its IP subnet (in IP Service Manager a super-VLAN
is called an IP aggregation point). The IP range subscriber is assigned IP numbers from
this subnet. The service provided through this port can support hosts configured with
the IP numbers in this range.
Customer
A customer is a collection of subscribers. Since a subscriber can only apply to one port,
anytime that you need to provide more than one port of service to an organization, you
will organize the individual ports as subscribers, and the whole organization as the
customer.
IP Aggregation Point
An IP aggregation point is a super-VLAN to which the IP range subscribers are
associated. Each IP range subscriber is on its own sub-VLAN associated with the IP
aggregation point, a super-VLAN.
