Hi all,

I have an APX8000 (as an replacement to a Portmaster4) and have it doing
most things I previously had the PM4 doing.
admin> ver
Software version 9.0.2

I have the unit setup to apply filters to dialup calls (if the APX doesn't
have a filter, it will get it via RADIUS) - all this is working fine.

However, on many accounts, I don't specify a filter in the RADIUS auth reply
at all - but when I do a "filterdisp" I see:
admin>  filterdisp
ID   Username    Src    Route-Filter  Data-Filter   Call-Filter   TOS-Filter
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
054  idsystems.clext                     < filters present >
056  dc0375      ext                     < filters present >
100  os0166      ext                     < filters present >
153  hiltonmeats.ext                     < filters present >
199  befriending.ext                     < filters present >
207  dr0488      ext                     < filters present >
...etc

Accounts in the format "ab0123" should not have filters, all other accounts
have one of 3 other filters:

admin> filtcache -s

Filter Name             Time Created    Exp After(min)  Use Cnt Refresh Cache
_______________________________________________________________________________
clirestrict             15:07:30        235             54      No
c24signup               17:32:01        380             3       No
c24user                 21:08:10        596             1118    No

(probably obvious from their names, what they do).

The standard "unfiltered" Auth ACK is:
        Service-Type = Framed-User,
        Framed-Protocol = PPP,
        Framed-IP-Address = 255.255.255.254,
        Framed-IP-Netmask = 255.255.255.255,
        Framed-MTU = 1500,
        Idle-Timeout = 600,
        Session-Timeout = 86400


So my question is, why does filterdisp say filters are present when
they aren't (or shouldn't) - and shouldn't it actually display the name
of the filter applied instead of just "< filters present >" ?


My second query, is in the area of CLID based callback/dialback.

I had the PM4 setup to do this, and it did it well by a CLID check:
0123456789	Service-Type = Call-Check
	Service-Type = Callback-Framed-User,
	Callback-Id = "locationname"

The PM4 would have dropped the call then dialled the locationname profile
and established the connection.

I've tried making this work with the APX without success.  I've tried the
following:
0123456789	Service-Type = Outbound-User
	Framed-Route = "212.108.64.129/28 212.108.64.129 1 n pgreggnet-out"

then I have another radius profile to define pgregg-out:

pgreggnet-out User-Password="xxxxxxxx", Service-Type = Outbound-User
        User-Name = "pgreggne"
        Ascend-Dial-Number = "0123456789",
        Framed-Protocol = PPP,
        Framed-IP-Address = 212.108.64.129,
        Framed-IP-Netmask = 255.255.255.240,
        Ascend-Send-Auth = Send-Auth-PAP,
        Ascend-Send-Secret = "yyyyyyyyy"


But alas, no luck.

Any pointers appreciated.

Paul.
