Anyone have any thoughts on this CUPS thing? I have a customer asking, but it seems the lack of CP resiliency and additional latency between the DP and CP make this a really dumb idea. Has anyone tried it? Does it make any sense? Thanks!
The CUPS makes a lot of sense for this application. Latency is dependent on the design, and equipment used. I’ve seen/done several designs for this using two different vendors equipment and two different BNG software stacks. When I do a design for BNG from scratch, this is how I do it now. :) As always… YMMV. - Brian

What is it about the architecture that makes it a preferred solution. I get that centralizing the user databases makes sense, but why the control plane. What benefit does that have? -- Tom On Wed, Mar 22, 2023 at 2:17 PM <brian.johnson@netgeek.us> wrote:
