Information About Subscribers

Anonymous Groups and Subscriber Templates

An anonymous group is a specified IP range, possibly assigned a subscriber template. When an
anonymous group is configured, the SCE platform generates anonymous subscribers for that group when
it detects traffic with an IP address that is in the specified IP range. If a subscriber template has been
assigned to the group, the anonymous subscribers generated have properties as defined by that template.
If no subscriber template has been assigned, the default template is used.
The SCE platform can support a maximum of 1000 anonymous groups. Subscriber templates are
identified by a number from 0-199.
Subscriber templates 1-199 are defined in csv formatted subscriber template files. However, template #0
cannot change; it always contains the default values.
If an anonymous group is not explicitly assigned a template, the group uses template #0.

Subscriber Files

•
•
Individual subscribers, anonymous groups, and subscriber templates may all be defined in csv files. A
csv file is a text file in a comma-separated-values format. Microsoft Excel™ can be used to view and
create such files. The subscriber data is imported into the system using the appropriate CLI command.
The SCE platform can also export the currently configured subscribers, subscriber templates and
anonymous groups to csv-formatted files.
Subscriber csv files and subscriber template csv files are application-specific. Refer to the relevant
application documentation for the definition of the file format.
Each line in a csv file should contain either a comment (beginning with the character '#'), or a list of
comma-separated fields.
Subscriber csv files are application-specific, but a default format is defined by the SCE, which is used
when the application does not choose to over-ride it. The application might over-ride the format when
additional data is desired for each subscriber or subscriber template. Refer to the relevant Service
Control Application documentation to see if the application defines a different format.
Subscriber template csv files are application-specific. Refer to the relevant Service Control Application
documentation of the file format.
Anonymous groups csv files are not application specific. Their format is described below.

Subscriber default csv file format

Each line has the following structure:
name, mappings, packageId

this subscriber. Multiple mappings are separated by semi-colon. Tunnel IDs and IP address/range
cannot be specified for the same subscriber. The following mapping formats are supported:
IP address — in dotted decimal notation. Example: 10.3.4.5
–
– IP address range — dotted decimal, followed by the amount of significant bits.
