Appendix A CSG2 Command Reference

ip csg bma

ip csg bma

To configure the Billing Mediation Agents (BMAs) to which the CSG2 is to send billing records, use the
ip csg bma command in CSG2 global configuration mode. To remove a BMA from the list of agents,
use the no form of this command.

ip csg bma [vrf vrf-name] ip-address port-number priority

no ip csg bma [vrf vrf-name] ip-address port-number

Syntax Description

Defaults

Active and standby BMAs are not defined.
If no VRF table is specified, the CSG2 uses the global routing table to communicate with the BMA.

Command Modes

Global configuration

vrf vrf-name

(Optional) Virtual Routing and Forwarding (VRF) table which the CSG2 is
to use to communicate with the BMA.

Note

The VRF table name is defined using the vrf definition command
in global configuration mode. VRF table names supported by the
CSG2 can be from 1 to 32 characters long, and can include
uppercase or lowercase letters, numbers, and any special characters.

The CSG2 does not support the use of the word forwarding as a
valid VRF name.

ip-address

IP address of the BMA you wish to define.

When you configure a BMA, make sure that its IP address and port number
match on both the active CSG2 and the standby CSG2.

You can configure multiple BMAs with the same IP address, but the CSG2
does not support nodealive or redirect for multiple BMAs with the same IP
address.

port-number

Port number of the BMA you wish to define. The range is from 1 to 65535.

The CSG2 differentiates BMAs on the basis of their port numbers. When
you configure a BMA, make sure its port number matches on both the active
CSG2 and the standby CSG2.

priority

Priority of the BMA you wish to define.

The priority specifies the order of preference of the agents. A lower number
indicates a higher priority. If the current agent becomes unusable, the CSG2
uses the highest priority BMA available.

Priorities for different agents do not have to be sequential. That is, you can
have three agents with priorities 1, 5, and 10.

The range of priorities is 1 to 1000.
