    -  - **fastPCRF** - responsible for interaction of the platform with the telecom operator's OSS/BSS via RADIUS protocol. (AAA - Authentication, Authorization, Accounting). fastDPI and fastPCRF components communicate with each other by internal communication protocol via TCP/IP stack. PCRF can be placed either on a separate physical or virtual server or run on the same server together with fasDPI. In case of using several SSG, 2xPCRF (Active-Standby) and NxSSG scheme is used.+  - **fastPCRF** - responsible for interaction of the platform with the telecom operator's OSS/BSS via RADIUS protocol.

    -  * DHCP - The subscriber receives an IP address via SSG DHCP Proxy and proceeds to AAA in the Billing system. SSG terminates the subscriber and transfers him to the border. +  * DHCP — The subscriber obtains an IP address via SSG DHCP Proxy or DHCP relay and passes AAA in Billing. 
    -  * Static IP - Subscriber has a static IP address, proceeds to AAA in the Billing system with ARP authorization, is terminated by SSG and gets to the border. +  * Static IP — The subscriber has a fixed IP address and passes AAA in Billing on the first IP packet.
