    摘要: A method for controlling subscriber access in a network capable of establishing connections with a plurality of domains includes receiving a communication from a subscriber using a first communication network coupled to at least one other communication network, the communication optionally including a domain identifier associated with a domain on the at least one other communication network, determining whether the subscriber is authorized to access the domain based upon the domain identifier and a list of authorized domains for a virtual circuit used to receive the communication and authorizing subscriber access to the domain when the domain identifier is included in the list. An access server includes a tunnel ID request generator and an authorizer. The tunnel ID request generator generates a tunnel ID request that includes a virtual circuit identifier associated with a virtual circuit used to accept a PPP authentication request. The authorizer grants subscribers domain access based upon a list of authorized domains for the virtual circuit.

    摘要: A method for controlling subscriber access in a network capable of establishing connections with multiple services includes receiving a communication from a subscriber using a first communication network coupled to a second communication network, the communication optionally including a domain identifier associated with a service on the second communication network, and authorizing the subscriber to access a service on the second communication network using a virtual circuit. The authorization is based upon a domain configuration override attribute associated with the virtual circuit used to receive the communication from the subscriber. An access server capable of forcing subscribers of a communications system to gain access exclusively to a domain network associated with a virtual circuit includes an authorizer to grant service authorization to the subscribers based upon a virtual circuit used to make a service request, a virtual circuit profile request generator to generate virtual circuit profile requests and a calculator to determine whether the service associated with the virtual circuit matches the service associated with a domain configuration override attribute.

    摘要: A method for on-demand management of Internet Protocol (IP) address pools includes allocating an unused IP address from a local IP address pool designated for a remote domain if a request to connect to the remote domain is received and deallocating an IP address if the IP address is released. The local IP address pool includes at least one subnet dynamically assigned from a global IP address pool. Each of the subnets specifies a contiguous set of one or more IP addresses. IP addresses are allocated using a first-assigned-subnet-first policy, wherein an IP address is allocated from a least recently assigned subnet having at least one unallocated IP address. According to one aspect, subnets are deassigned using a last-assigned-subnet-first policy, wherein the deassigned subnet is the most recently assigned subnet having no allocated IP addresses.
