Configuring a Policy and Charging Enforcement Function Profile for Subscriber Management

Note:

Starting in Junos OS Release 19.3R2, policy and charging enforcement function (PCEF) profiles are also supported if you have enabled Next Gen Services on the MX240, MX480 or MX960 router with the MX-SPC3 card.

A PCEF profile specifies a set of PCC rules and rulebases that can be assigned to a subscriber, and assigns a precedence value to each predefined rule. The PCEF profile is used in one of the following ways:

  • A static PCEF profile is specified in a dynamic profile. The dynamic profile indicates whether to activate all the rules in the PCEF profile or just a subset of the rules.

  • A dynamic PCEF profile identifies the PCC rules and rulebases that a PCRF can directly activate.

Note:

You cannot change a PCEF profile while it is being used by a subscriber. To modify the PCEF profile, you must log off the subscribers that are using the PCEF profile.

To configure a PCEF profile:

  1. Specify a name for the PCEF profile.
  2. Specify one or more PCC rules and a precedence for each rule. A lower precedence value indicates a higher precedence. The precedence assigned must be unique among the configured PCC rules, including the PCC rules that are assigned a precedence within a PCC rulebase.

    • For a PCEF profile that is specified in a dynamic profile, specify the rules under static-policy-control.

    • For a PCEF profile that identifies the PCC rules that a PCRF can directly activate, specify the rules under dynamic-policy-control.

  3. Specify one or more PCC rulebases.

    • For a PCEF profile that is specified in a dynamic profile, specify the rulebases under static-policy-control.

    • For a PCEF profile that identifies the PCC rules that a PCRF can directly activate, specify the rulebases under dynamic-policy-control.
