These release notes contain important information regarding the Cisco Subscriber Edge Services Manager (Cisco SESM) Release 3.1(3).
Note For information about obtaining a license number, see the "Obtaining a License Number" section on page 6. |
These release notes discuss the following topics:
Cisco SESM provides service selection and connection management in broadband and mobile wireless environments. Cisco SESM provides the end user (the subscriber) with a web portal for accessing multiple services. The ISPs and NAPs deploying Cisco SESM can customize the content of the web pages and thereby control the subscriber experience.
SESM Deployment Options
SESM Release 3.1(3) supports the following deployment options:
SESM Application Suite
SESM Release 3.1(3) includes the following sample web portal applications that can be installed and configured for demonstration purposes or used as a starting point for customizations:
You can optionally install the following applications to configure an SESM captive portal solution:
SESM-SPE includes two additional supporting applications:
Additional software components bundled in the Cisco SESM installation package are:
This section describes hardware and software requirements for SESM deployments.
You can deploy SESM using the following platforms and SSG devices.
SESM Platforms
SESM applications can run on any platform that supports the Java Runtime Environment (JRE). Verified platforms are:
SSG Devices
The following devices, when they are running the Cisco IOS Release 12.2.(4)B or later with SSG enabled, work with SESM Release 3.1(3):
The following SESM features require support on the SSG:
Captive Portal Compatibility
To use the captive portal feature in SESM to support unauthenticated user redirections:
To use the captive portal feature in SESM to support service redirections, initial logon redirections, and advertising redirections:
Port-bundle Host Key Compatibility
To use the port-bundle host key feature, the SSG host device must be running Cisco IOS Release 12.2(2)B or later and the SSG host key feature must be configured appropriately. The host key feature can be enabled and disabled on both the SESM and SSG products to ensure backwards compatibility.
This section describes new features introduced in SESM Release 3.1(3).
The following new features apply to SESM running in RADIUS or LDAP mode.
The following new features apply to SESM running in LDAP mode.
The SESM web-application software is enhanced in this release in the following ways:
This release introduces support for a new deployment option, whereby the SESM application is deployed without the SSG enabled on the edge router. In this deployment, the SESM application does not provide support for service selection, but it can be used as a subscriber management system. This deployment option is only possible when SESM is operating in LDAP mode, with support for the self-care features.
Self-care can enable features such as:
These features will be fully demonstrated in a future SESM release.
A new input panel in the SESM installation program allows the installer to choose whether to deploy the SESM application in a network with an SSG. The check box defaults to Yes, as most installations will continue to take advantage of the SSG features. If you do not want to make use of SSG features in your deployment, uncheck the box. In this release, this deployment option only makes sense in LDAP mode.
This feature has not yet been fully validated and does not appear in the SESM documentation set.
The following sections highlight some important installation information.
See the Cisco Subscriber Edge Services Manager and Subscriber Policy Engine Installation and Configuration Guide for complete installation instructions.
The SESM installation program provides for two types of installation:
The license number is important when you are requesting technical support for SESM from Cisco. After installation, the license number and the software version in the licensenum.txt file appear under the installation directory.
You can download the SESM software from the Cisco.com web site or copy it from the SESM product CD-ROM. Cisco SESM software is contained in the following packages.
If you purchased a contract that allows you to obtain the SESM software from Cisco.com, follow these procedures:
Step 2 Click the Login button. Enter your Cisco user ID and password.
To access the Cisco images from the CCO Software Center, you must have a valid Cisco user ID and password. See your Cisco account representative if you need help.
Step 3 Under Service and Support, click Software Center.
Step 4 Click Web Software.
Step 5 Click Cisco Subscriber Edge Services Manager.
Step 6 Download the appropriate image based on the platform you intend to use for hosting the SESM web application.
The SSG, LDAP directory, and RADIUS components do not need to be installed and configured before you execute the Cisco SESM installation program. However, the installation program prompts you for configuration information about these components, such as IP addresses, ports, shared secrets, and other information required for the SESM components to communicate with them. You should know these values before you perform the installation. Otherwise, you will need to reconfigure the solution later.
In the case of the LDAP directory, it is advantageous to install the Cisco SESM solution when the directory is running and to have update rights to the directory. The installation program can install required extensions to the LDAP directory.
If you are installing the demo, the installation program does not prompt you for configuration information about SSGs, LDAP directories, or RADIUS servers.
This section contains information about upgrading from previous releases of the software.
Web Portal Development
An SESM Release 3.1(1) portal application works in an SESM Release 3.1(3) deployment with some modifications. To help you with the migration process, a modified version of NWSP from SESM Release 3.1(1) is included with SESM Release 3.1(3) in a subdirectory called nwsp311. The nwsp311 application was precompiled using SESM Release 3.1(3) libraries. The nwsp311 application code contains comments explaining all required modifications.
Captive Portal Configuration
To configure the SSG TCP redirect feature to work with the sample SESM captive portal solution, the captive portal server must be the IP address of the SESM Captive Portal application. This is different from how you configured SSG to work with the captive portal solution in SESM Release 3.1(1). In Release 3.1(1), the SSG captive portal server was the IP address of the NWSP application.
LDAP Mode Deployments
The SPE directory extensions contain new fields. You can use options in the SESM installation program to load the new extensions.
Note You must first delete the old extensions. If you are using the NDS eDirectory, you must reinstall the directory. |
The Cisco Service Selection Dashboard (SSD) Release 3.0(1) is essentially the same as SESM Release 3.1(1) in RADIUS mode. An SSD Release 3.0(1) web application works in an SESM RADIUS mode deployment. Some changes were made in the XML Document Type Definition (DTD) for the MBean configuration files. Therefore, there are slight differences in the configuration files from those that were installed for SSD Release 3.0(1). There are a few new optional configuration parameters. Some Java APIs were deprecated, and the NWSP sample application was improved.
We recommend that you install SESM in a different directory from the one in which you installed SSD Release 3.0(1) to preserve the configuration files (for your reference) and any JSP customizations that you made to the NWSP application. Be sure to copy the customizations into the new installation directory.
The configuration and deployment of SESM Release 3.1(x) is different from the predecessor product, Service Selection Dashboard (SSD) Release 2.5(1) and earlier releases. The main differences are:
If you are currently using SSD Release 2.5(1) or earlier, see the "Upgrading from SSD Release 2.5(1)" section in Release Notes for Cisco Subscriber Edge Services Manager Release 3.1(1) for migration information. The online location is:
http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/solution/sesm/sesm_311/rnsesm31.htm
Use the uninstall utility provided with the SESM product to remove a previous installation. The uninstall utility is located in the following directory:
installDir
_uninst
uninstall.bin or uninstall.exe
The uninstall utility does the following:
After you run the uninstall utility, you can safely reinstall one or more SESM components into the same directory.
Note Do not uninstall SESM by manually deleting the contents of the installation directory. If you manually remove the contents of the directory and then attempt a reinstall into the same directory, the reinstall might not be complete. |
The following sections describe some important considerations related to the Cisco SESM.
To install SESM on a Windows NT platform from the SESM product CD-ROM, copy the installation file from the CD-ROM onto a local drive and perform the installation using the local copy. For more information, see the explanation for caveat CSCuk27495 in the "Caveats" section.
The SESM portal applications use precompiled JavaServer Pages. If you modify the JavaServer Pages in one of the SESM portal applications, you must recompile the JavaServer Pages before the changes are visible in the application. For information on recompiling, see the Cisco Subscriber Edge Services Manager Web Developer Guide.
On Windows platforms, JRE Version 1.2.2 displays the following messages at SESM application startup:
A nonfatal internal JIT (3.10.107(x)) error 'Relocation error:
NULL relocation target' has occurred in
'org/apache/crimson/parser/Parser2.maybeComment (Z)Z': Interpreting method.
Ignore this message.
It has been observed that the performance of the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) Version 1.3.0 on Solaris is less than optimal. Later versions of the JRE may have improved performance. The recommended JRE for SESM Release 3.1(3) is JRE Version 1.3.1_02.
The Sun example JMX server includes an HTML adaptor server that produces a web-based management console. This console displays the currently set values for all attributes in the XML configuration files and is useful for development environments.
However, the JMX HTML adaptor server is not production quality. For example, configuration changes that you make using this console are not persistent. We recommend that you remove this server from the configuration files before you transition the SESM application to public use.
To remove the JMX HTML adaptor server, comment out the following element in the nwsp/config/nwsp.xml file:
<Configure init="99"
class="com.sun.jdmk.comm.HtmlAdaptorServer"
name="com.cisco.aggbu:name=HtmlAdaptorServer">
<Set name="Port" type="int"><SystemProperty
name="management.portno"/></Set>
<Call name="start"/>
</Configure>
Cisco SESM Release 3.1(3) uses the following security mechanisms:
If you are using a Sun Ultra or Enterprise system, you must use Solaris Version 2.6 or later. For live deployments, we recommend using an Enterprise class server with hot-swappable components and load-balancing across multiple servers. The Cisco Content Services Switch 11000 (CSS 11000) is preferred for load balancing.
For Windows NT installations, we highly recommend that you use hardware that meets the Windows NT Hardware Compatibility List (HCL) guidelines set by Microsoft with at least 64 MB of RAM (128 MB of RAM is recommended). Memory requirements are influenced by login rates, the number of subscribers concurrently logged on, and the number of services the subscribers are subscribed to use. See Chapter 5, "Running SESM Components," in the Cisco Subscriber Edge Services Manager and Subscriber Policy Engine Installation and Configuration Guide for more details about memory requirements.
Table 1 describes known problems in SESM Release 3.1(3).
Category | Caveat | Description |
---|---|---|
General Issues | CSCdw50552 | Service and mutually exclusive groups are not displayed when you are using a Netscape Version 4.7 browser. Workaround: None |
CSCuk28056 | When a subscriber with inherited Cisco AV Pairs from a user group creates a subaccount from the NWSP application, the subaccount does not inherit the parent's AV Pairs. If the parent account has a Local Cisco AV Pair, the subaccount inherits that AV Pair. Workaround: After a subscriber creates a subaccount, an administrator must use CDAT to set the Cisco AV Pairs, either in the subaccount or in the parent account. | |
CSCuk28781 | If a home URL does not contain the complete URL information, the resulting popup homepage that the subscriber sees after logging in the next time is malformed. Workaround: Instead of entering a URL such as www.cisco.com, enter the complete URL as in http://www.cisco.com. | |
CSCuk31287 | A user group member is erroneously autoconnected to a service when the following conditions are true:
When the user logs on, the service is autoconnected even though the user was not subscribed to the service group. Workaround: Do not define services in a service group as auto-logon in a user group. | |
CSCuk31416 | For the RDP component, if you configure the service and group passwords to be the same, then service connections always fail. Workaround: Ensure that the RDP is configured so that the service and group passwords are unique. | |
CSCuk32513 | When the RDP component is used in a deployment in which the SSG is in RADIUS proxy mode, authentication failures result in an Access Reject message returned from the RDP to the SSG without the Proxy attribute (33) present. In this instance, the SSG ignores this response and does not reply to the originating client. Workaround: None | |
CSCuk32279 | Display-related issues exist with the Service List page if the service list includes a service group with a service that is no longer valid. A service could be invalid because it is misconfigured in the RADIUS server database, or in LDAP mode, because it was deleted by an administrator using the CDAT interface. After the SSG host object is cleared and the user logs in again, this problem is resolved. Workaround: Try to ensure that all users are unsubscribed from the service that you wish to delete before deleting it. | |
General Issues (continued) | CSCuk32591 | For Proxy and Tunnel service types, if a subscriber decides to enter or change a service username and password for a subscribed service, the changes have no effect. Workaround: If this occurs, the subscriber must unsubscribe and then resubscribe to the affected service. |
CSCuk32619 | On the Linux platform, the SESM portal application stop scripts (for example, stopNWSP) sometimes fail. Workaround: After running the stop script, manually verify if the process stopped. If it is not stopped, use native Linux commands to manually kill the relevant process. | |
CSCuk32607 | In LDAP mode, the Next Hop Gateway functionality for a service does not work. Workaround: Manually bind services on the edge router using Cisco IOS CLI commands. | |
CSCuk32606 | Authentication or session logon with a WAP device fails if the subscriber is subscribed to any services that do not have a defined service route. Workaround: Ensure that all services required by WAP-based subscribers have service routes defined in the service profile. | |
CSCuk32602 | In a captive portal deployment, when an unauthenticated WAP subscriber tries to connect to a service, the authentication page appears. After authentication, the service list page appears and the subscriber is not connected to the original service as a non-WAP based subscriber would be. Note If the WAP subscriber is already authenticated, this issue does not arise. Workaround: The subscriber manually selects the service from the service list. | |
Install Issues | If you are installing SESM from the SESM product CD-ROM onto a Windows NT platform, the installation application fails because it tries to write to the CD's partition, which is read-only. Workaround: Copy the installation file to your Windows NT platform and execute the local copy to install SESM. | |
CSCuk31427 | During the installation procedure, if you select the Proxy mode option for the RDP configuration, the installation program presents a panel prompting you for the Proxy RADIUS server details. If you decide to return to the previous panel and uncheck the Proxy mode option, the installation program still presents the Proxy RADIUS server panel, even though it is not required. Workaround: Cancel out of the installation application and restart the process. | |
CSCuk31428 | During a custom installation, if you select only the RDP component, the installation program also selects the Jetty component. The Jetty component cannot be unselected, even though the RDP does not require it. Workaround: Proceed as normal with the installation. The Jetty component has a very small footprint. Although it is installed, it does not have an impact on the operation of the RDP component. | |
CSCuk31431 | During a custom installation in LDAP mode, if you deselect all of the choices and then reselect the Web Applications, the installation application correctly autoselects the Jetty component but does not autoselect the SPE component. Workaround: If this sequence of events occurs, be sure to manually select the SPE component, as it is required for LDAP mode. | |
Install Issues (continued) | CSCuk29291 | The SESM installation application requires the JDK or JRE that you wish to use in your deployment to be located in a well-known directory; otherwise the installation program does not find your installed version and uses the bundled JRE. Workarounds:
See the Installation Components section in the Cisco Subscriber Edge Services Manager and Subscriber Policy Engine Installation and Configuration Guide for further details, including a list of the well-known directories. |
CSCuk31543 | The silent install option does not perform correctly for the SESM applications, unless you intend to install in Demo mode. Configuration information for the web portal applications (NWSP, PDA, WAP) is not set, although the remaining applications and components (CDAT, RDP, Captive Portal, Message Portal) are configured as expected. Workaround: The preferred workaround is to use the normal or console-based installation mode. An alternative workaround is to manually edit the incorrect configuration files:
| |
CDAT Issues | CSCuk29592 | If an administrator deletes a service from CDAT that is defined as an autoconnected service in a subscriber's profile, some service-related attributes might not be deleted from the directory. The problem occurs regardless of whether the subscriber is logged in or logged out. These redundant attributes do not have an impact on the subscriber. Workaround: There is no impact in leaving these attributes in the directory, but administrators can manually remove the attributes if they wish. |
CSCuk31892 | CDAT cannot distinguish between local and inherited generic RADIUS attributes in a user profile when the user is a member of a group for which the generic attributes are defined. Workaround: None | |
CSCuk30471 | CDAT cannot distinguish between user and group pool names. Workaround: None | |
CSCdv02447 | When CDAT displays subaccounts, it displays group membership and not blocked roles. Workaround: You can manipulate these values using an LDAP server administration tool such as ConsoleOne, or by using the appropriate NWSP application self-care feature to modify the roles of a subaccount. | |
CDAT Issues (continued) | CSCuk32405 | A known problem in iPlanet Version 5.0 affects the CDAT application. The problem is that removing an attribute does not fully remove it. For more information, see the following locations regarding iPlanet Bug 554309: http://docs.iplanet.com/docs/manuals/directory/50sp1/relnotes.html#19127 http://docs.iplanet.com/docs/manuals/directory/50sp1/relnotes.html. This issue has an impact on the CDAT application in the following situation. If the InetOrgPerson is set to UID, and an administrator removes Poolname or Primary Service, it causes an exception and unexpected behavior in the CDAT application. If you change the Poolname or Primary Service to a value other than a null string, this problem does not occur. Workarounds: Either:
|
CSCuk32178 | In CDAT, the Block Inheritance and Service Filters attributes are not inherited by the user from a user group. Workaround: If these attributes are required, they must be directly assigned to each user. | |
CSCuk32167 | In CDAT, if you change a user from one user group to another, certain attributes become local to the user's profile, and are not inherited from the new user group. These attributes are: Home URL, Maximum number of subaccounts, Enable SSO, Pool name, Primary Service, and TCP redirection attributes. Workaround: None |
This section includes information about SESM Release 3.1(3) that does not appear in the Cisco Subscriber Edge Services Manager Web Developer Guide.
This section provides information about SESM web application development that is not in the Cisco Subscriber Edge Services Manager Web Developer Guide.
The sample SESM web applications use JavaServer Pages (JSP pages), which allow for the combination of markup language (such as HTML or WML), use of custom beans and tag libraries, and Java if required.
The SESM software includes a set of precompiled JSP pages for the sample SESM web applications such as NWSP. In any production deployment, the default JSP pages require customization by the deployer. Two options are available for compiling a modified set of JSP pages.
The precompile.sh script precompiles a full set of JSP pages for the SESM web application (for example, NWSP) that you specify when you invoke the script and creates a JAR file containing the resulting compiled servlet classes. The script also makes adjustments to the SESM web application's web.xml file so that the web application uses the precompiled JSP pages.
To create and execute the script needed to precompile a set of JSP pages, do the following on a UNIX workstation where the SESM software is installed:
Step 2 Using a text editor, create a shell script by copying and pasting the script in Figure 1 into a file. Name the file precompile.sh and save it in the tools/bin directory.
Step 3 To make the script executable, issue the following command:
chmod a+x precompile.sh
Step 4 Run the script precompile.sh and wait for completion, which may take some time.
Note The comments at the beginning of the precompile.sh script provide information on how to use
the script. The script can be run from any directory as the paths used in the script are all full path names. If you do run the script from the recommended directory, then set the environment variable SESM_HOME to be the full path name of the SESM installation directory.

This section contains information about developing and testing SESM web portal applications.
WAP Simulator
You cannot access the sample WAP application using the UP.Simulator Version 4.1 (part of the UP.SDK for WML from Openwave Systems Inc.). For example, if you issue the following request, a content type error results:
http://some_server:8080
To access the sample WAP application, use the Nokia Mobile Internet Toolkit's simulator.
Dreamweaver UltraDev Live Window Feature
If you use the Dreamweaver UltraDev Live Window feature, the NWSP web application's home page (home.jsp) does not work correctly. To use the Live Data window with home.jsp, comment out the following statement in home.jsp:
<%@ include file="/decorators/openWindow.jspf"%>
The commented-out statement is as follows:
<%-- @ include file="/decorators/openWindow.jspf" --%>
Before you test and deploy the web application, remove the comment delimiters.
If you use the Dreamweaver UltraDev Live Window feature, the NWSP web application's subscription and subaccount subscription pages do not work correctly. To access these pages, use Dreamweaver UltraDev normal mode (as opposed to Live Data mode). Alternatively, you can access the body JSP pages (for example, subscriptionManageBody.jsp) directly in Live Data mode.
File Tag in the Shape Tag Library
If the file tag from the Shape tag library (<shape:file name='...'/>) does not find the resource specified by the name attribute, the JSP page stops displaying. In some cases, the window goes or appears blank. This is normally only an issue during development and testing, as all resources should be available in a production application.
