Ethernet Port Billing
The Ethernet Port Billing configuration serves facilities that have Ethernet-
VBN transport systems. Ethernet Port Billing uses YesWare billing functions
to provision, manage and bill Ethernet switches on a port-by-port basis.
Configuration options and restrictions
Ethernet Port Billing configurations support all YesWare service areas and
billing methods. However, Ethernet Port Billing cannot serve facilities that
also support an Enhanced Modem Billing configuration.
Provisioning Ethernet Port Billing configurations
Ethernet Port Billing is provisioned using the functions in the Ethernet
Switch and Port Provisioning section of Port Manager.
The steps to provision Ethernet Port Billing are described in Chapter 7,
“Provisioning the Ethernet-VBN switches and ports.” Figure 1-8 illustrates the
Ethernet Port Billing configuration.
