    Methods for Obtaining IPv6 Prefixes for NDRA

    You can set up the BNG to select IPv6 prefixes used for NDRA through one of the following methods:

    • An external source such as a AAA RADIUS server.
    • Dynamic assignment from a local pool of NDRA prefixes that is configured on the BNG

    Using AAA RADIUS Server to Obtain IPv6 Prefixes for NDRA

    When the BNG needs to obtain a prefix for NDRA, it uses the values in one of the following RADIUS attributes that it receives in Access-Accept messages from the RADIUS server:

    • Framed-IPv6-Prefix—The attribute contains an IPv6 prefix that the BNG can send to the CPE in router advertisement messages.
    • Framed-IPv6-Pool—The attribute contains the name of an NDRA pool configured on the BNG from which the BNG can select a prefix to include in router advertisements.
