Generally, a typical ISP provides services that require intermittent access and fixed access. For intermittent access, systems are usually setup to authenticate through a RADIUS/AAA server that handles billing. For fixed access, billing and disconnection is usually done manually using tools like MS Excel to track payments, router access lists to block expired users, etc. This is fine for a small ISP until the number of users grows. Managing fixed access services of more than 30 clients could prove daunting with expired users sometimes slipping through.
TISP provides an automated and efficient way of billing ISP services.
