SRC Component Overview
The SRC software is a dynamic system. It contains many components that you use to build a subscriber management environment. You can use these tools to customize and extend the SRC software for your use and to integrate the SRC software with other systems. The SRC software also provides the operating system and management tools for C Series Controllers.
Table 4 gives a brief description of the components that make up the SRC software.
Table 4: Descriptions of SRC Components
Component | Description |
|---|---|
| Server Components | |
Service activation engine (SAE) |
|
Subscriber Information Collector (SIC) | The SIC listens for RADIUS accounting events from IP edge devices (accounting clients) and forwards them to a remote AAA server, allowing the SRC software to gain increased subscriber awareness. Additionally, the SIC can optionally edit accounting events before routing them. |
Juniper Policy Server (JPS) | Acts as a policy decision point (PDP) and policy enforcement point (PEP) that manages the relationships between application managers and CMTS devices in a PCMM environment. |
Network information collector (NIC) | Collects information about the state of the network and can provide a mapping from a given type of network data to another type of network data. |
Redirect Server | Redirects HTTP requests received from IP Filter to a captive portal page. |
3GPP Gateway | The SRC Third-Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) gateway is a Diameter-based component in the SRC software, which provides integration with 3GPP Policy and Charging Control environments, to provide fixed-mobile convergence (FMC). The SRC 3GPP gateway provides Gx-based integration with the Policy and Charging Rules Function (PCRF). The SRC 3GPP gateway uses the northbound Gx interface to mediate between the PCRF and Juniper Networks routers like the E Series Broadband Services routers and MX Series routers. The northbound Gx interface on the SRC 3GPP gateway communicates with the PCRF using the Diameter protocol. |
3GPP Gy | The SRC 3GPP Gy is a Diameter-based component in the SRC software, which provides Gy-based integration with the Online Charging System (OCS), to provide FMC. The SRC 3GPP Gy uses the northbound Gy interface to handle charging-related information between the OCS and Juniper Networks routers like the E Series Broadband Services routers and MX Series routers. The northbound Gy interface communicates with the OCS using the Diameter protocol. |
Web Application Service | The SRC software includes a Web application server that hosts the Web Services Gateway and the Volume Tracking Application (SRC VTA). In production environments, this application server is designed to host only these applications. However, you can load your own applications into this server for testing or demonstration purposes. |
Web Services Gateway | Allows a gateway client—an application that is not part of the SRC network—to interact with SRC components through a Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP) interface. The Web Services Gateway provides the Dynamic Service Activator which allows a gateway client to dynamically activate and deactivate SRC services for subscribers and to run scripts that manage the SAE. |
| Repository | |
Directory | The SRC software includes the Juniper Networks database, which is a built-in Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) directory for storing all SRC data including services, policies, and small subscriber databases. For large subscriber databases, you must supply your own directory. |
| SRC Configuration and Management Tools | |
SRC command line interface (CLI) | Provides a way to configure the SRC software on a C Series Controller from a Junos OS–like CLI. The SRC CLI includes the policies, services, and subscribers CLI, which has separate access privileges. |
C-Web interface | Provides a way to configure, monitor, and manage the SRC software on a C Series Controller through a Web browser. The C-Web interface includes a policies, services, and subscribers component, which has separate access privileges. |
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) agent | Monitors system performance and availability. It runs on all the SRC hosts and makes management information available through SNMP tables and sends notifications by means of SNMP traps. |
| Service Management Applications (Run on external system) | |
IMS Services Gateway | Integrates into an IP multimedia system (IMS) environment. The SRC software provides a Diameter protocol-based interface that allows the SRC software to integrate with services found on the application layer of IMS. |
| SRC Programming Interfaces | |
NETCONF API | Allows you to configure or request information from the NETCONF server on a C Series Controller that runs the SRC software. Applications developed with the NETCONF API run on a system other than a C Series Controller. |
CORBA plug-in service provider interface (SPI) | Tracks sessions and enables linking the rest of the service provider’s operations support system (OSS) with the SRC software so that the OSS can be notified of events in the life cycle of SAE sessions. Hosted plug-ins only. |
CORBA remote API | Provides remote access to the SAE core API. Applications that use these extensions to the SRC software run on a system other than a C Series Controller. |
NIC access API | Performs NIC resolutions. Applications that use these extensions to the SRC software run on a system other than a C Series Controller. |
SAE core API | Controls the behavior of the SRC software. Applications that use these extensions to the SRC software run on a system other than a C Series Controller. |
Script services | Provides an interface to call scripts that supply custom services such as provisioning policies on a number of systems across a network.
|
VTA API | The Volume Tracking Application (VTA) API is a Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP) interface that allows developers to create gateway clients and that administrators use to manage VTA subscribers and sessions. The SRC Web Services Gateway allows a gateway client—an application that is not part of the SRC network—to interact with SRC components, such as the VTA, through a SOAP interface. |
| Authorization and Accounting Applications | |
AAA RADIUS servers | Authenticates subscribers and authorizes their access to the requested system or service. Accepts accounting data—time active and volume of data sent—about subscriber and service sessions. RADIUS servers run on a system other than a C Series Controller. |
SRC Admission Control Plug-In (SRC ACP) | Authorizes and tracks subscribers’ use of network resources associated with services that the SRC application manages. |
Flat file accounting | Stores tracking data to accounting flat files that can be made available to external systems that send the data to a rating and billing system. |
Volume Tracking Application | The SRC Volume Tracking Application (SRC VTA) is an SRC component that allows service providers to track and control the network usage of subscribers and services. You can control volume and time usage on a per-subscriber or per-service basis. This level of control means that service providers can offer tiered services that use volume as a metric, while also controlling abusive subscribers and applications. When a subscriber or service exceeds bandwidth limits (or quotas), the SRC VTA can take actions including imposing rate limits on traffic, sending an e-mail notification, or charging extra for additional bandwidth consumed. |
| Demonstration Applications (available on the Juniper Networks Website) | |
Enterprise Audit Plug-In | Defines a callback interface, which receives events when IT managers complete specified operations. |
Enterprise Manager Portal | Allows service providers to provision services for enterprise subscribers on routers running JunosE or Junos OS and allows IT managers to manage services. Enterprise Manager Portal can be used with NAT Address Management Portal to allow service providers to manage public IP addresses for use with NAT services on routers running Junos OS and to all IT managers to make requests about public IP addresses through the Enterprise Manager Portal. |
Monitoring Agent application | Integrates IP address managers, such as a DHCP server or a RADIUS server, into an SRC-managed network so that the SAE is notified about subscriber events. The Monitoring Agent application runs on a Solaris platform. |
Residential service selection portals | Provides a framework for building Web applications that allow residential and enterprise subscribers to manage their own network services. It comes with several full-featured sample Web applications that are easy to customize and suitable for deployment. The Residential service selection portals run on a Solaris platform. |
Sample enterprise service portal | Lets service providers supply an interface to their business customers for managing and provisioning services. |
