Cisco Intelligent Wireless Access Gateway User Manual

2
The access point (AP) or Wireless LAN controller (WLC) starts the authentication process using Extensible
Authentication Protocol (EAP) by sending an EAP Request ID to the mobile device.
3
The mobile device sends a response for the EAP Request ID back to the AP or WLC.
4
Upon successful authentication, the mobile device sends an IPv6 FSOL that could be router solicit, neighbor
solicit, or neighbor advertisement, to the iWAG.
5
The iWAG sends a RADIUS Access Request to the AAA server asking it to authenticate the subscriber.
6
The iWAG creates a MAC-based ISG session and pulls the subscriber profile from the AAA server. If the
profile has the AAA attribute value as "Cisco-AVPair=mn-service=dual", then the subscriber is authorized
for both IPv4 and IPv6 data transfer. Similarly, the AAA attribute value of
"Cisco-AVPair=mn-service=ipv4" or "Cisco-AVPair=mn-service=ipv6" represents the IPv4 or IPv6
protocol, using which the subscriber is authorized to send data.
7
The iWAG checks whether the ISG session for the MAC address is initiated or created.
8
The AAA server sends the RADIUS Access Accept message to the iWAG.
9
If the received profile has "cisco-mpc-protocol-interface" attribute with value as GTP, then iWAG initiates
GTP tunneling by sending a Create PDP Context Request to the GGSN.
10
The GGSN sends a RADIUS Access Request to the AAA server.
11
The AAA server replies with a RADIUS Access Accept message to the GGSN.
12
The GGSN sends a Create PDP Context Response.
13
The GTP-U tunnel is established between the iWAG and the GGSN.
14
In response to the IPv6 (RS) FSOL sent, the iWAG sends a router advertisement (RA) packet using SLAAC
that includes the IPv6 prefix, to the mobile device. The mobile device appends the IPv6 prefix to it's 64-bit
(EUI or MAC address appended with FFFE) to form a unique 128 bit address.
15
The IPv6 traffic can flow through the GTP-U tunnel.
16
The mobile device sends a DHCPv4 Discover message to the iWAG.
17
The iWAG sends the IPv4 address through a DHCP Offer message to the mobile device. The iWAG
provisions the IPv4 stack.
18
Both the IPv4 and IPv6 traffic can flow through the GTP tunnel.
