AAA Server Group Support
Value-added feature to enable VPN service provisioning for enterprise or MVNO customers. Enables each corporate
customer to maintain its own AAA servers with its own unique configurable parameters and custom dictionaries.
customer to maintain its own AAA servers with its own unique configurable parameters and custom dictionaries.
This feature provides support for up to 800 AAA (RADIUS and Diameter) server groups and 800 NAS IP addresses that
can be provisioned within a single context or across the entire chassis. A total of 128 servers can be assigned to an
individual server group. Up to 1,600 accounting, authentication and/or mediation servers are supported per chassis and
may be distributed across a maximum of 1,000 nodes. This feature also enables the AAA servers to be distributed across
multiple nodes within the same context.

The HNB-GW connects to core network elements like MSC and SGSN over IuCS and IuPS interfaces respectively. The
Iu interface towards core network elements could either by IP based or ATM based. To provide ATM based interface
support, Cisco HNB-GW provides AAL2 support on system in order to establish a voice bearer with MSC.
