Configuring the SSG

Configuring the SSG

This appendix illustrates some basic steps for configuring the Cisco Service Selection Gateway (SSG) to work with a Subscriber Edge Services Manager (SESM) web application. For a complete description of how to configure SSG, see the following documentation:

Basic SSG Configuration

This section shows basic procedures for enabling an SSG and configuring it to communicate with a RADIUS server. When following these procedures, replace the sample IP addresses, port numbers, and passwords with values that are appropriate for your configuration.


Step 1   Log on to the NRP.

Step 2   To access enabled mode, enter:

en

Step 3   To change the configuration, enter:

conf t

Step 4   To enable the SSG, enter:

ssg enable

Step 5   To remove a line, enter:

no radius-server host 10.3.3.2 auth-port 1647 acctport 1648 0 key cisco

Step 6   To add an entry, enter:

radius-server host 10.3.3.2 auth-port 1812 acctport 1813 0 key cisco

Step 7   To end editing, enter:

Ctrl-Z

Step 8   To rebuild the configuration, enter:

wr t

Step 9   To examine the current configuration, enter:

show run

Step 10   The relevant configuration entries are as follows:

    ssg default-network 10.3.3.0 255.255.255.0
    ssg service-password servicecisco
    ssg radius-helper auth-port 1812
    ssg radius-helper key cisco
    ssg maxservice 21
    radius-server host 10.3.3.2 auth-port 1812 acct-port 1813 key cisco
    radius-server retransmit 3
    radius-server key cisco

Configuring the Host Key Port Bundle Feature on SSG

For the host key port bundle mechanism to operate correctly, the SESM web application must reside in the default network with subscribers (PPP or bridged/routed) connected on downstream interfaces.


Note   The host key feature requires Cisco IOS Release 12.2(2)B or later.

To configure the SSG for host key operation, enter the following configuration commands at the terminal configuration prompt on the SSG host:

    ssg port-map enable ssg port-map source ip loopback 0 ssg port-map destination range lowPort to highPort ip SESMaddress

The ssg port-map source ip command configures the IP addresses for use as the IP portion of the host key. Each configured address allows for approximately 4000 host keys, if the default port bundle length of 4 is used. This address becomes the source IP address for all upstream TCP packets from SSG to the SESM web application (and conversely, the destination address for all downstream TCP packets from the SESM web application to the SSG). Although you can explicitly configure these addresses, the safest way to configure them is by using a loopback interface, as shown above, because these IP addresses must be recognized as corresponding to a local interface or loopback.

If you use the interface that is configured to give SSG access to the default network as one of the interfaces in the ssg port-map source ip command, that interface cannot also be used as a Telnet interface into the SSG host.

The ssg port-map destination range command defines the address and ports of the SESM web application, where:

lowPort is the lowest SESM port

highPort is the highest SESM port

SESMaddress is the IP address of SESM

If there is only one SESM port available, highPort should have the value lowPort + 1. For example:

    ssg port-map destination range 10100 to 10101 ip 10.0.3.1

Sample SSG Configuration

The following annotated configuration example shows how to implement the following features:

The following lines enable and configure SSG to communication with the SESM web application.

#ssg enable #ssg default-network 192.168.2.0 255.255.255.0 #ssg service-password xssg-key #ssg radius-helper auth-port 1812 acct-port 1813 #ssg radius-helper key cisco #ssg next-hop download ssg-next-hop xssg-key #ssg accounting interval 600 #ssg bind service internet FastEthernet0/0/0 #ssg bind service opengarden-aggregation FastEthernet0/0/0 #ssg bind service proxy ATM0/0/0.2 #ssg bind direction downlink ATM0/0/0.301 #ssg bind direction uplink FastEthernet0/0/0 #ssg bind direction uplink ATM0/0/0.2 #ssg bind direction downlink ATM0/0/0.3

The following lines illustrate how to configure SSG open gardens:

#ssg open-garden opengarden-aggregation #ssg open-garden opengarden-microweb #ssg open-garden opengarden-xyz.com #ssg service-search-order local remote #! #local-profile opengarden-microweb # attribute 26 9 251 "R10.1.1.100;255.255.255.255" # attribute 26 9 251 "D10.1.2.133" # attribute 26 9 251 "Ocisco.com" #! #local-profile opengarden-xyz.com # attribute 26 9 251 "R10.1.1.0;255.255.255.255" # attribute 26 9 251 "D10.1.1.10" # attribute 26 9 251 "Oxyz.com;zap.com" #! #local-profile opengarden-aggregation # attribute 26 9 251 "D192.1.1.10" # attribute 26 9 251 "Ocisco.com" # attribute 26 9 251 "R11.1.1.99;255.255.255.255" #!

The following lines illustrate how to configure the TCP redirect capability. The http-redirect group command specifies an arbitrary name for a captive portal group. You can define multiple captive portal groups, each one directing a set of subscribers to different SESM web applications.

This example defines one captive portal group (captive-portal-1) that is serviced by the SESM web application running on server 10.1.2.50, port 80. The following incoming requests are redirected to that SESM application:

The lines below imply that the SESM application on server 10.1.2.50, port 80 is configured with the captive portal option turned on and that a captive portal application is running. The SESM application's related captive portal application examines the captured packet and determines an appropriate action. The captive portal application could authenticate the subscriber and display the list of authorized services, or it might display an SESM logon page. Another possibility is that the captive portal application could authenticate the subscriber and then redirect the packet to the original URL the subscriber specified. For example, the captive portal application might honor the home page specified in the subscriber's browser.

#ssg http-redirect group captive-portal-1 server 10.1.2.50 80 #ssg http-redirect port 81 group captive-portal-1 #ssg http-redirect network 192.168.10.0 255.255.255.0 group captive-portal-1 #ssg http-redirect unauthorized-user group captive-portal-1 #! #! #interface Ethernet0/0/1 # no ip address #! #interface Ethernet0/0/0 # description Management LAN # ip address 192.168.2.48 255.255.255.0 #interface FastEthernet0/0/0 # ip address 192.168.1.48 255.255.255.0 # full-duplex #!

The following lines illustrate how to configure communication between SSG and a RADIUS server.

#ip radius source-interface Ethernet0/0/0 #! #radius-server configure-nas #radius-server host 192.168.2.50 auth-port 1812 acct-port 1813 #radius-server retransmit 3 #radius-server timeout 60 #radius-server deadtime 2 #radius-server attribute 25 nas-port format d #radius-server attribute nas-port format d #radius-server key cisco #radius-server vsa send accounting #radius-server vsa send authentication
