Dynamic Subscriber Accounts

This chapter shows you how to set up and manage dynamic subscriber accounts.

12.1 Dynamic Subscriber Account Overview

Unlike a static account, a dynamic account is not permanent. Once the time allocated to a
dynamic account is used up or a dynamic account remains un-used after the expiration time,
the account is deleted from the account list automatically.
Dynamic accounts are automatically generated either by pressing a button on an external
statement printer connected to the CONSOLE port or using the web configurator (the
Dynamic Account Operator Panel screen).
Note: You cannot manually add a dynamic account.
The following figure displays the links for accessing the dynamic account configuration
screens when you click System Settings, Accounting and Dynamic Account.

12.2 Dynamic Account General Settings

There are two ways you can create dynamic accounts on the VSG:
• using a statement printer connected to the VSG.
• using the web configurator.
Before you create dynamic accounts, you must specify the billing profile(s), the number of
printout copies and the number of hours before the VSG automatically deletes an inactive
account. Refer to the related sections for more information.
For creating dynamic accounts using a statement printer, make sure you connect the statement
printer (sold separately) to the CONSOLE port on the VSG. Then, in the Dynamic Account
Setting screen, select the profile setting for each button on the statement printer (refer to the
user's guide that comes with the statement printer).
