The Subscriber Interface
This chapter provides an overview of the Access Gateway's Subscriber Interface and sections
outlining the authorization and billing processes, subscriber management modles, and the ICC.

Overview

The Subscriber Interface is the window to the solution provider's Web site, and much more
than that. When a subscriber accesses the solution provider's high speed network, the Access
Gateway points their browser to a sign-in page. The Access Gateway then creates a database
entry that automatically records the subscriber's Media Access Control (MAC) address and
integrates this address with a PMS interface for secure billing. Like a router, the Access
Gateway continuously tracks subscriber IP and MAC settings, eliminating the need for further
sign-ins and ensuring that subscriber usage and billing is recorded accurately. The Access
Gateway also eliminates configuration issues between the subscriber's computer and the
network.
The Subscriber Interface is the portal Web site of the solution provider's broadband network,
and as such, its appearance and functionality reflect the needs of the solution provider. The
Access Gateway is a gateway to this network, providing connection services that enable and
automate an effective Enterprise relationship between a supplier (the solution provider) and its
customer (the subscriber). The Access Gateway's role in this customer/supplier relationship is
effectively "invisible" to subscribers.
