Managing VTA Accounts and Sessions

Depending on the information that identifies subscribers in your SRC configuration, you can configure the SRC-VTA to use several types of plug-in attributes as data keys to identify accounts and sessions in the VTA database. If you use a NIC with the VTA portals, the SRC-VTA can also use some of these plug-in attributes to construct a data key that the NIC can use to determine which SAE manages a subscriber. When the NIC identifies an SAE, the SRC-VTA can also obtain a key to identify the subscriber session that the SAE is managing for the subscriber.

You configure the data keys that identify accounts and sessions in the SRC-VTA Subscriber ID field. See Configuring Identifiers for Subscribers and Sessions .
