Sensors deployed in mobile networks monitor subscriber traffic and RADIUS accounting traffic that goes out of GGSN to Internet gateway and RADIUS servers. Each mobile device in the network has an IP address. The Sensor parses RADIUS accounting exchanged between GGSN and the RADIUS server and forms an association of IP addresses and subscriber mobile identity details like phone number, IMSI number, and APN. The Sensor also associates the attacks that are detected on the internet traffic with the mobile subscriber identity data and includes them in alerts sent to the Manager.
The following commands are used to enable monitoring RADIUS accounting traffic in mobile networks.

set mnsconfig <on | off>
