The Telecom Regulatory Reality

Why IPDR is Legally Mandatory for Every ISP & WISP in India

Under Department of Telecommunications (DoT) licensing conditions and CERT-In directions, every licensed service provider must maintain unalterable records of subscriber network sessions.

DoT Regulatory Compliance

ISP license conditions mandate storing 1-2 years of NAT translation logs. Failing to produce session records during DoT security audits can result in severe financial penalties or license cancellation.

The CGNAT "Blindspot" Solved

Because IPv4 is exhausted, hundreds of users share a single public IP. When cyber-crime authorities ask "Who used port 38291 at 14:02:11 IST?", raw RADIUS logs cannot answer. IPDR pinpoints the exact private IP and user.

Frequently Asked Questions about IPDR Server

Answers to common technical, legal, and operational questions from ISP network managers.

What is an IPDR Server and why does every ISP need one? help_outline

An IPDR (Internet Protocol Detail Record) Server collects and archives the technical session logs of every internet subscriber, including source IP, translated NAT port, destination IP, port, and timestamp. In India, it is mandatory under Department of Telecommunications (DoT) license terms and CERT-In directions for national cyber security and Law Enforcement Agency (LEA) investigations.

How does Netwall IPDR Server solve CGNAT traceability? help_outline

Because IPv4 addresses are scarce, ISPs assign private IPs (e.g. 100.64.x.x) and translate them to shared public IPs using CGNAT. Netwall captures the translation event from your router and matches it with RADIUS session records. When cyber-crime authorities provide an IP and port, Netwall instantly reveals the exact private subscriber, MAC address, and physical location.

What hardware is required to run Netwall IPDR Server? help_outline

For an ISP with 2,000 to 10,000 active subscribers, a standard 1U/2U server with an 8-core CPU, 32GB RAM, and enterprise SAS/NVMe drives is typically sufficient. Our high compression ratio ensures you do not need expensive external SAN or petabyte storage arrays.

Can it work with our existing FreeRADIUS or third-party billing software? help_outline

Yes. While Netwall Expert provides its own unified ISP BNG & Billing platform, our IPDR Server can operate as an independent collector. It can ingest RADIUS accounting feeds directly from standard FreeRADIUS, MikroTik User Manager, or third-party ISP CRM systems via syslog or database replication.

Are the exported reports legally compliant for court submissions? help_outline

Yes. Netwall IPDR Server signs every generated audit report with SHA-256 cryptographic timestamps and system metadata, adhering strictly to the Indian Evidence Act criteria for electronic records and DoT standard compliance formats.
