AAA and subscriber access operations connected to the commercial service.
XIMS Access connects RADIUS AAA, PPPoE and hotspot access, bandwidth profiles, IP pools, MikroTik operations and supported BNG session visibility with the subscriber’s commercial service status.
Product overview
XIMS Access is the access-operations family of the XIMS platform: authentication, authorization and accounting for broadband subscribers, operated against the same record that carries plans, invoices and support history.
Current capability matrix
Native today: RADIUS AAA; PPPoE and hotspot access; voucher and OTP hotspot onboarding; per-plan bandwidth profiles and FUP rules; IP pool management; authorised suspend, restore and session actions via CoA.
Native versus integrated functions
MikroTik operations run over the RouterOS API as a first-class integration. BNG and BRAS session visibility is available where the device is integrated — Cisco ASR and Juniper MX operate through standards-compliant RADIUS. We keep the distinction explicit: native platform functions versus integration-dependent functions.
Subscriber-to-session workflow
A subscriber signs up in CRM, receives a plan, and authenticates at the network edge — one identity through commercial onboarding, AAA and live session. Payment events flow back to session policy in the same loop.
Access action controls
Suspend, restore, speed change and disconnect are authorised platform actions with operator roles, not router-side manual work — every action attributable to a user and a reason.
Device and NAS support status
MikroTik (RouterOS API + RADIUS), Cisco ASR and Juniper MX via RADIUS, and any standards-compliant NAS. Hotspot flows run on MikroTik RADIUS with voucher engines and OTP onboarding.
Event and audit model
Authentication events, accounting records and operator actions land in queryable history — sessions are evidence, not ephemera. Lease-style session records support compliance retention needs.
Deployment topology
Deploys with the XIMS platform on-premise or hosted, sized from single-site ISPs to multi-tenant operations across 11 countries.
Operational dashboards
Live session views, authentication failure analysis and usage reporting sit alongside billing dashboards — the NOC and the business read the same numbers.
Scope boundaries
XIMS Access is subscriber access operations for broadband networks. It is not an HSS, UDM, PCRF, PCF, IMS or 5G core, and does not claim to be a universal multi-vendor SDN controller.
Roadmap, labelled as roadmap
A subscriber-level cybersecurity protection layer (DNS filtering, threat intelligence) is in active development with select pilot ISPs. It is roadmap — not a current release claim.
