Configuring a NIC

For demonstrations and installations with few subscribers, you can configure the VTA to use a NIC proxy stub, which explicitly defines a set of data mappings. However, for standard installation with a significant number of subscribers and multiple SAEs, you must set up a full NIC configuration.

To configure a NIC for the VTA management portals:

1. Use the OnePopLogin configuration scenario (see NIC Configuration Scenarios).
2. Plan and configure the NIC hosts. See Configuring the NIC (SRC CLI).
3. Add the NIC SAE agents to each SAE configuration as external plug-ins. Specify these plug-in attributes: router-name, session-id, user-type, login-name, user-ip-address.

   For information about configuring SAE plug-ins, see Configuring the SAE for External Plug-Ins.

4. (Optional) Configure a NIC proxy stub. See Configuring NIC Test Data (SRC CLI) for information about configuring the NIC proxy stub.
5. Configure a NIC proxy for the VTA. See Configuring NIC Proxies for the VTA .
