3GPP Attribute Support
In GGSN environments ISG RADIUS proxy must understand and parse the Third Generation
Partnership Project (3GPP) attributes described in Table 1. These attributes form part of the accounting
requests.
Benefits of ISG RADIUS Proxy
Use of ISG RADIUS Proxy has the following benefits:
• Allows the complete set of ISG functionality to be applied to EAP subscriber sessions.
• Allows an ISG device to be introduced into a network with minimum disruption to the existing
network access server (NAS) and AAA servers.
• Simplifies RADIUS server configuration because only the ISG, not every access point, must be
configured as a client.
