[RADIATOR] Redback BRAS _ Radiator _ GPON network

[Thomas Kurian]

Dear Support,

We have a client who is basically an ISP with GPON network connected to 
Ministry of Communication, Redback Smartedge BRAS and Radiator Radius 
server. Currently their radiator is handling their customers 
authentication. Kindly advise whether it is possible to send interim 
accounting updates from Redback BRAS NAS to a new radiator radius server 
in order to identify the top bandwidth abuser customer company sharing 
the GPON leased line on an hourly basis.

For example : Lets say the ISP has leased a 10Mbps connection from the 
ministry of communication for a set of 10 various customer companies.

Lets assume the average bandwidth consumption per company is 1Mbps. Lets 
say from 1-2pm , 2nd company  fully uses the 10Mbps bandwidth and 
therefore during this hour the rest of the 9 companies cannot use this 
connection, hence we need to identify these leased line abuser companies 
on a hourly basis and put them under a separate tariff plan in order to 
provide them a dedicated line to fulfill their bandwidth needs as per 
their consumption rates. Currently since the ISP GPON network terminates 
at the ministry of communication from where it is distributed to the 
customer companies, the ISP does not have visibility on the top 
bandwidth abuser company as a lump-sum.

Please advise whether having a new radiator installation instance which 
receives interim accounting updates from Redback BRAS NAS server with a 
customized GUI  to review top abuser companies on a hourly basis or 
should we consider to go for some additional product integration such as 
Solarwinds NPM to achieve the above mentioned objective.
