Configuring NIC Proxies for the VTA

For information about NIC proxies, see Overview of NIC Proxy Configuration.

To configure NIC proxies, select the NIC proxy that you want to configure.

  • If subscribers connect to the network through a JUNOSe router, you can configure a NIC proxy that passes the subscriber’s IP address and receives the identifier that you configured for the subscriber. This NIC allows customers to log in through the Web portals.

    You must also specify the namespace of the NIC proxy in the CONSTANTS.incl file of the Web applications for the VTA portals (see Properties for VTA Portals ).

  • You can configure a NIC proxy that passes the subscriber’s identifier to a NIC resolver and receives the corresponding SAE reference. This NIC allows the VTA to immediately activate a subscriber’s quota service when a deposit is made to the subscriber’s account. This feature is available for subscribers who connect to the network through JUNOSe routers or JUNOS routing platforms.

For information about the parameters that you can configure for NIC proxies, see Configuration Statements for NIC Proxies.
