AAA Accounting
Authentication, Authori)ation and Accounting. The act of collecting information on resource usage for the purpose of capacity planning, auditing, billing or cost allocation. An accounting record represents a summary of the resource consumption of a user over the entire session. Accounting servers creating the accounting record may do so by processing interim accounting events or accounting events from several devices serving the same user. The act of verifying the identity of an entity <sub%ect=. The act of determining whether a reIuesting entity <sub%ect= will be allowed access to a resource <ob%ect=. The :iameter protocol consists of a header followed by one or more Attribute8;alue8/airs <A;/s=. An A;/ includes a header and is used to encapsulate protocol8specific data <e.g., routing information= as well as authentication, authori)ation or accounting information. A broker is a business term commonly used in AAA infrastructures. A broker is either a relay, pro$y or redirect agent, and 9AN be operated by roaming consortiums. :epending on the business model, a broker may either choose to deploy relay agents or pro$y agents. Credit pool is a mechanism to avoid the credit fragmentation introduced by credit reservation on HC" server. The HC" server allocates the Iuotas with a reference to a credit pool. A credit pool is formed on the client by multiple Iuotas linked to one credit pool, from which all services draw units. A :iameter Agent is a :iameter node that provides either relay, pro$y, redirect or translation services. A :iameter Client is a device at the edge of the network that performs access control. An e$ample of a :iameter client is a Network Access "erver <NA"= or a ?oreign Agent <?A=. A :iameter node is a host process that implements the :iameter protocol, and acts either as a Client, Agent or "erver. A :iameter /eer is a :iameter Node to which a given :iameter Node has a direct transport connection.

:iameter "ecurity &$change
A :iameter "ecurity &$change is a process through which two :iameter nodes establish end8to8end security. A :iameter "erver is one that handles authentication, authori)ation and accounting reIuests for a particular realm. (y its very nature, a :iameter "erver 9 "T support :iameter applications in addition to the base protocol. :ownstream is used to identify the direction of a particular :iameter message from the home server towards the access device. TL" and #/sec provide hop8by8hop security, or security across a transport connection. 2hen relays or pro$y are involved, this hop8by8 hop security does not protect the entire :iameter user session. &nd8to8 end security is security between two :iameter nodes, possibly communicating through :iameter Agents. This security protects the entire :iameter communications path from the originating :iameter node to the terminating :iameter node. A Home 1ealm is the administrative domain with which the user maintains an account relationship. "ee :iameter "erver. An interim accounting message provides a snapshot of usage during a user0s session. #t is typically implemented in order to provide for partial accounting of a user0s session in the case of a device reboot or other network problem prevents the reception of a session summary message or session record. A local realm is the administrative domain providing services to a user. An administrative domain 9AN act as a local realm for certain users, while being a home realm for others. 9ulti8session A multi8session represents a logical linking of several sessions. 9ulti8sessions are tracked by using the Acct89ulti8"ession8#d. An e$ample of a multi8 session would be a 9ulti8link /// bundle. &ach leg of the bundle would be a session while the entire bundle would be a multi8session. The Network Access #dentifier, or NA#, is used in the :iameter protocol to e$tract a user0s identity and realm. The identity is used to identify the user during authentication and3or authori)ation, while the realm is used for message routing purposes. #n addition to forwarding reIuests and responses, pro$ies make policy decisions relating to resource usage and provisioning. This is typically accomplished by tracking the state of NA" devices. 2hile pro$ies typically do not respond to client 1eIuests prior to receiving a 1esponse from the server, they may originate 1e%ect messages in cases where policies are violated. As a result, pro$ies need to understand the semantics of the messages passing through them, and may not support all :iameter applications.

1ealm
The string in the NA# that immediately follows the 040 character. NA# realm names are reIuired to be uniIue, and are piggybacked on the administration of the :N" namespace. :iameter makes use of the realm, also loosely referred to as domain, to determine whether messages can be satisfied locally, or whether they must be routed or redirected. #n 1A:# ", realm names are not necessarily piggybacked on the :N" namespace but may be independent of it. 1eal8time accounting involves the processing of information on resource usage within a defined time window. Time constraints are typically imposed in order to limit financial risk. 1elays forward reIuests and responses based on routing8related A;/s and realm routing table entries. "ince relays do not make policy decisions, they do not e$amine or alter non8routing A;/s. As a result, relays never originate messages, do not need to understand the semantics of messages or non8routing A;/s, and are capable of handling any :iameter application or message type. "ince relays make decisions based on information in routing A;/s and realm forwarding tables they do not keep state on NA" resource usage or sessions in progress. 1ather than forwarding reIuests and responses between clients and servers, redirect agents refer clients to servers and allow them to communicate directly. "ince redirect agents do not sit in the forwarding path, they do not alter any A;/s transiting between client and server. 1edirect agents do not originate messages and are capable of handling any message type, although they may be configured only to redirect messages of certain types, while acting as relay or pro$y agents for other types. As with pro$y agents, redirect agents do not keep state with respect to sessions or NA" resources. 1oaming relationships include relationships between companies and #"/s, relationships among peer #"/s within a roaming consortium, and relationships between an #"/ and a roaming consortium. A security association is an association between two endpoints in a :iameter session which allows the endpoints to communicate with integrity and confidentially, even in the presence of relays and3or pro$ies. A session is a related progression of events devoted to a particular activity. &ach application "HH L: provide guidelines as to when a session begins and ends. All :iameter packets with the same "ession8 #dentifier are considered to be part of the same session. A stateful agent is one that maintains session state information, by keeping track of all authori)ed active sessions. &ach authori)ed session is bound to a particular service, and its state is considered active either until it is notified otherwise, or by e$piration. A sub8session represents a distinct service <e.g., @o" or data characteristics= provided to a given session. These services may happen concurrently <e.g., simultaneous voice and data transfer during the same session= or serially. These changes in sessions are tracked with the Accounting8"ub8"ession8#d.

Transaction state
The :iameter protocol reIuires that agents maintain transaction state, which is used for failover purposes. Transaction state implies that upon forwarding a reIuest, the Hop8by8Hop identifier is savedO the field is replaced with a locally uniIue identifier, which is restored to its original value when the corresponding answer is received. The reIuest0s state is released upon receipt of the answer. A stateless agent is one that only maintains transaction state. A translation agent is a stateful :iameter node that performs protocol translation between :iameter and another AAA protocol, such as 1A:# ". A transport connection is a TC/ or "CT/ connection e$isting directly between two :iameter peers, otherwise known as a /eer8to8/eer Connection. pstream is used to identify the direction of a particular :iameter message from the access device towards the home server. The entity reIuesting or using some resource, in support of which a :iameter client has generated a reIuest.
