Configuring Service PICs and Session PICs Overview

date_range 26-Jan-21

You must configure at least one service PIC and one session PIC under a TDF gateway. The service PIC provides subscriber-aware services, such as the policy and charging enforcement function (PCEF), application detection and control, and HTTP header enrichment. The session PIC supports access subscriber sessions, policy and charging rules function (PCRF) sessions, and PCEF library installation from the PCRF.

You can configure service PICs and session PICs on MS-MPCs, and you can configure them either as a member of a redundant group by using an aggregated multiservices (AMS) interface or as a standalone service PIC or session PIC.

To configure service and session PICs:

  1. Configure the TDF gateway.
  2. If you want any of the service or session PICs to be members of redundant groups, configure an aggregated multiservices (AMS) interface for each group.
  3. If you want any of the service or session PICs not to be members of redundant groups, configure a services interface.
  4. Install predefined groups that are needed for configuration of the service PICs and session PICs.
  5. Configure each service PIC.
  6. Configure each session PIC.
