Configuring an AAA Profile

An AAA profile is a collection of attributes to specify how the MX Series router interacts with RADIUS servers that control the activation and deactivation of policy and charging control (PCC) rules.

Before you configure an AAA profile, you must do the following:

  • Configure the network elements that are to be included in the AAA profile.

To configure an AAA profile:

  1. Configure a name for the AAA profile.
  2. Specify the network element providing policy management for TDF subscribers.
  3. If the RADIUS servers in the network element providing policy management for TDF subscribers cannot initiate a change of authorization (CoA) request without an accounting record, specify that the network element is used for accounting.
  4. If the RADIUS servers in the network element providing policy management for TDF subscribers cannot initiate a CoA request without an accounting record, enable the initiation of a RADIUS accounting start from the MX Series router to the RADIUS servers.
  5. Configure the RADIUS attribute that you want to carry the PCC rulebase name for rulebase activations from the RADIUS policy server to the MX Series router. By default, the rulebase name is carried in the ERX-Service-Activate Juniper vendor-specific attribute (VSA).
    1. Specify the numeric value for the RADIUS AVP.

    2. If the RADIUS AVP is vendor-specific, specify the vendor identification.

  6. Configure the RADIUS attribute that you want to carry the PCC rulebase name for rulebase deactivations from the RADIUS policy server to the MX Series router. By default, the rulebase name is carried in the ERX-Service-Deactivate Juniper VSA.
    1. Specify the numeric value for the RADIUS AVP.

    2. If the RADIUS AVP is vendor-specific, specify the vendor identification.
