VPDN Groups
The VPDN group contains the data required to build a VPDN tunnel from the RPM NAS LAC to the
LNS. In the context of RPM, VPDN is authorized by first associating a customer profile with a VPDN
group, and second by associating the VPDN group to the DNIS group used for that customer profile.
VPDN group data includes the endpoint IP addresses.
Cisco RPM enables you to specify multiple IP endpoints for a VPDN group, as follows:
• If two or more IP endpoints are specified, Cisco RPM uses a load-balancing method to ensure that
traffic is distributed across the IP endpoints.
• For DNIS-based VPDN dial service, VPDN groups are assigned to customer profiles based on the
incoming DNIS number and the configured DNIS groups.
• For domain-based VPDN dial service, VPDN groups are assigned to the customer profile or the
default customer profile with the matching call-type assignment.
• For either DNIS-based or domain-based VPDN dial services, there is a customer profile or default
customer profile for the initial resource allocation and customer session limits.
The VPDN group provides call management by allowing limits to be applied to both the number of MLP
bundles per tunnel and the number of links per MLP bundle. Limits can also restrict the number of
sessions per IP endpoint. If you require more granular control of VPDN counters, use VPDN profiles.
VPDN Profiles
VPDN profiles allow session and overflow limits to be imposed for a particular customer profile. These
limits are unrelated to the limits imposed by the customer profile. A customer profile is associated with
a VPDN profile. A VPDN profile is associated with a VPDN group. VPDN profiles are required only
when these additional counters are required for VPDN usage per customer profile.
Call Treatments
Call treatment determines how calls are handled when certain events require the call to be rejected. For
example, if the session and overflow limits for one of your customers have been exceeded, any additional
calls will receive a busy signal (see Table 42).
