Figure 19: Web Redirect Traffic Flow
Starred entries (*) are items the router performs masquerading as the destination, regardless of the
destination IP address or type of service.
Information needed by the filter that may be sent to the portal:
• Customer’s IP address
• Customer’s MAC address
• Original requested URL
•Customer’s SAP
• Customer’s subscriber identification string
Note that the subscriber identification string is available only when used with subscriber
management. Refer to the subscriber management section of the 7750 SR OS Triple Play Guide
and the 7750 SR OS Router Configuration Guide
Since most web sites are accessed using the domain name the router allows either DNS queries or
responds to DNS with the portal’s IP address.
