Introduction

Cisco Subscriber Registration Center (CSRC) Release 1.0(2.4) lets subscribers self-provision using a Web-based user interface. The self-provisioning process includes these stages:

The User Registrar component of CSRC is an automated provisioning application that enables subscribers to provision themselves for data-over-cable services after activating their account. User Registrar works in conjunction with Network Registrar, Modem Registrar, Access Registrar, uBR element management, and your account management system to provide a complete service provisioning system. To allow you to integrate User Registrar into your existing system, User Registrar includes customizable pages and extension points. User Registrar supports integration with third party billing and other customer care and management applications using the callout interface.

Table 5: CSRC Release 1.0(2.4) Bug Fixes
Number Description Resolution

CSCds03241

Segmentation faults occur when you install CSRC 1.0(2.2) on a system running Solaris7.

If you are using Solaris 7, install CSRC version 1.0(2.4).

CSCdr98803

Both the User Registrar and Modem Registrar user interfaces might fail if the csrc_start command is executed by a shell environment which has the hup command enabled.

This might happen in the standard "/bin/sh" shell.

Execute the "csrc_start" command with the nohup command. The command would be started by:

> nohup csrc_start

The csrc_start command has been modified to use nohup as part of the execution of the web user interface, including both JRun and Apache.

CSCds09600

When a modem is assigned an IP address for an unregistered CSRC subnet, the use of the "List All CM" option in Modem Registrar causes JRun to crash, either immediately or when the session is terminated.

Modem Registrar has been fixed to output this error message, and continues to function:

Unable to locate subnet option set for IP address (x.x.x.x)

In this message (x.x.x.x) identifies the IP address of the cable modem (CM) on which the "List All CM" was performed.
