Configuring a NAS-Port-ID with Additional Options

You can include optional values in the NAS-Port-ID (RADIUS attribute 87), which identifies the physical interface subscriber management uses to authenticate subscribers. By default, the NAS-Port-ID includes the interface-description value that describes the physical interface. You can include the following values in the NAS-Port-ID:

  • agent-circuit-id
  • agent-remote-id
  • interface-description
  • nas-identifier

To configure an access profile to provide additional options in the NAS-Port-ID:

  1. Specify the access profile you want to configure.
    [edit]user@host# edit access profile retailer25
  2. Specify that you want to configure RADIUS options.
    [edit access profile retailer25]user@host# edit radius options
  3. Specify the character to use as the delimiter between the different attribute values in the NAS-Port-ID. By default, subscriber management uses the hash character (#).
    [edit access profile retailer25 radius options]user@host# set nas-port-delimiter %
  4. Specify that you want to configure the format of the NAS-Port-ID.
    [edit access profile retailer25 radius options]user@host# edit nas-port-id-format
  5. Include the interface description in the NAS-Port-ID. (The interface description is not included by default when you configure the nas-port-id-format statement.)
    [edit access profile retailer25 radius options nas-port-id-format]user@host# set interface-description
  6. Include the Agent Circuit ID in the NAS-Port-ID.
    [edit access profile retailer25 radius options nas-port-id-format]user@host# set agent-circuit-id
  7. Include the Agent Remote ID in the NAS-Port-ID.
    [edit access profile retailer25 radius options nas-port-id-format]user@host# set agent-remote-id
  8. Include the NAS identifier value in the NAS-Port-ID.
    [edit access profile retailer25 radius options nas-port-id-format]user@host# set nas-identifier
