Subscriber Creation & Identity Mapping
Subscriber Creation & Identity Mapping
Product: i2i Core OSS/BSS
Company: i2i Tech Services Private Limited
Purpose
Subscribers represent the operational endpoint identity consuming a service (credentials + network identifiers). Correct mapping ensures authentication success, accurate accounting, and consistent service state across systems.
Identity Components
- Authentication identity: username/identifier used by AAA
- Authorization mapping: which service/plan/profile applies
- Network identifiers: MAC/VLAN/Circuit/Interface mapping where applicable
- Status: active/suspended/terminated aligned to lifecycle
Workflow
- Open Service → Create Subscriber
- Assign identity/credentials per policy
- Map subscriber to service entitlement
- Validate uniqueness → Save
- Perform post-save validation (AAA/provisioning readiness)
Validation & Safety
- Credentials must be unique within the defined domain/policy scope.
- Ensure correct plan/profile mapping; wrong mapping causes speed/policy mismatches.
- Any production credential reset should be auditable and approved.
Troubleshooting Signals
- Authentication fails → check identity mapping and subscriber status
- Session starts but wrong policy → check service profile mapping
- Usage not visible → check accounting correlation and identifiers
