    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
