The page Local AAA Table allows you to manage local authentication and the authorization database. Callers dialing the routes which have an AAA (Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting) option enabled, will pass the authorization on the Local AAA Table by using the phone number or username/password, depending on the corresponding entry configuration on this page.
The caller passes authorization automatically if the detected phone number of the caller dialing a route has AAA option enabled and is registered in the Local AAA Table. If the caller ID service is disabled or the caller's phone number is not registered, the caller is asked to enter a registration user name and password.
Add opens
the page Call Routing- Local AAA Table - Add Entry where a new local AAA record can be created.
The page Add Entry page offers a group of manipulation radio buttons to select the type of authorization and the following other parameters:
Authentication by Caller ID - this selection is used to set the authentication based on the caller's phone number (which is considered to be automatically detected). The Phone Number/SIP User Name text field requires the caller's phone number or the SIP username. Only digit and wildcard characters are allowed for this field. '[' , ']' , ',', '-', '{', '}' are used to define a range or a quantity of numbers. For example, 2{13-17, ww, a-c} means that the dialed number may be 213, 214, 215, 216, or 217, 2ww, 2a, 2b and 2c to match the specified phone number; in the case of 2[3,7], the dialed number may be 23 or 27 to match the specified phone number. The {11, 15, 23, 38, 45} pattern means that the dialed number may be 11, 15, 23, 38 or 45 to match the phone number.
Authentication by Login - this selection is used to set the authentication based on the username and password inserted by the user upon login. The Username text field requires the authentication username. Only digit values are allowed for this field, otherwise the error message "Incorrect Username - digits allowed only" will appear. The Password text field requires the authentication password. Only digit values are allowed for this field, otherwise the error message "Incorrect Password - digits allowed only" will appear.
Authentication by PIN- this selection is used to set the authentication based on the PIN inserted by the user upon login. Only digit values are allowed for this field, otherwise the appropriate error message will be displayed.
The drop down lists Expiration Date and Time are used to set date and time when registration will expire.
Thecheckbox Expires in is used to enable Expiration Date and Time feature.
The Description text field requires an optional description about calling party.
