Configuring the AAAH
You configure information about the Home Agent as a “Peer” on the HP-UX Mobile AAA
server that you want to act as the AAAH. Use the HP-UX Mobile AAA Server Manager
to configure the Home Agent information, as described below. The Server Manager and
its related components must be running and you must have a Server Connection
configured for the Mobile AAA server that you want to configure as the AAAH.
1. Go to the Navigation Tree located in the left frame of the HTML page. Select Peers
under the Configuration branch.
2. Go to the main frame of the HTML page. Select the Mobile AAA server that you want
to configure as the AAAH below the prompt Which HP-UX Mobile AAA Server do
you wish to pull the configuration from.
3. Select New Peer.
4. Complete the Peer Attributes fields as follows:
FQDN Enter the Fully-Qualified Domain Name of the Home Agent. This
must match the FQDN configured on the Home Agent using the
-mf ma_fqdn parameter of the mipconfig configure global
command.
Identity-Port Port number sent as the Diameter Identity String. Use the default
value.
Connection-Port
Port number that the Mobile AAA server will connect to on the
peer. Use the default value. This parameter is ignored for HP-UX
Home Agents because mipd does not accept connection requests
from the AAA server
Shared Secret Enter any value. An entry is required, but the value is ignored
because HP-UX Home Agents do not support TLS.
Type Select Mobile IP Home Agent (HP-UX Mobile IPv4 does not
support combined Home and Foreign Agents with AAA).
Accepts Dynamic Allocation
Select Yes if you want the AAAH to dynamically allocate this Home
Agent. Otherwise, select No.
Security Select NONE. (HP-UX Home Agents do not support TLS.)
Connection Select Listen Only. HP-UX Mobile IPv4 never accepts connection
requests (“Calls”) from the Mobile AAA server.
IP Address There are two conditions that require entries in this field.
a. If you are using dynamic Home Agent allocation with static
home addresses, enter the subnet broadcast address for the
interface on the Home Agent providing this feature.
b. The Home Agent has IP interface addresses that the AAAH
cannot resolve to the configured FQDN using gethostbyname(),
enter the IP addresses here. (Most network installations use
DNS to resolve gethostbyname() queries.)
