    3G/4G services via both mobile and Wi-Fi accesses. The Cisco® eWAG enables Wi-Fi integration into 3G mobile packet core (MPC), allowing clientless UE attached to trusted Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs) seamlessly access 3G services. In this case, the UE does not require a client, it has no dependencies on the Wi-Fi architecture, and does not realize that it is connecting to a 3G network (3G access is integrated with the normal UE-WLAN attach procedure).
  • Page 13: Platform Requirements

    Platform Requirements ▀ Platform Requirements The eWAG service is supported on Cisco® ASR 5000 Series chassis running StarOS. The chassis can be configured with a variety of components to meet specific network deployment requirements. For additional information, refer to the Installation Guide for the chassis and/or contact your Cisco account representative.
  • Page 14: License Requirements

    ▀ License Requirements License Requirements The eWAG is a licensed Cisco product. Separate session and feature licenses may be required. Contact your Cisco account representative for detailed information on specific licensing requirements.

    SGSN GPRS Tunneling Protocol (SGTP) service is configured. However, in the ASR 5000 chassis the R-eWAG operates based on APN profile. This means that when the GGSN (used for connecting to APN) is also configured on the same chassis, it will use the same APN profile used by the R-eWAG (assuming that the subscriber is connecting through R-eWAG to reach that APN using the collocated GGSN).

    Note that in the ASR 5000 chassis the virtual-APN selection can be based on other criteria apart from access gateway (AGW) address selection like MSISDN range, RAT type, and so on. R-eWAG uses only AGW address criteria, which is the RADIUS accounting-client from which the initial Accounting-Start message is received.
