Interoperation of Authentication of IPv6 Clients and Display of Active Subscriber Information

The following cases describe the behavior of the show subscribers command, used to view details on active subscribers logged in to the router, when AAA and RADIUS authentication mechanisms are used to authenticate IPv6 subscribers:

• If you do not disable AAA authentication on the default router for IP subscribers by using the aaa authentication ip default none command and do not map the domain name of the user with the virtual router by using the aaa domain-map command, details regarding the logged-in subscribers are not displayed in the output of the show subscribers and show subscribers ipv6 commands. In such cases, you can use the output of the show subscribers summary command to view the summary information of the subscribers that are logged in.
• If you disable AAA authentication on the default router for IP subscribers by entering the aaa authentication ip default none command and map the domain name of the user with the virtual router by using the aaa domain-map command, you can view the details of the active subscribers using the output of the show subscribers, show subscribers ipv6, and show subscribers summary commands.
• If you configure RADIUS authentication for IP subscribers on the default router by using the aaa authentication ip default radius command and the Virtual-Router VSA attribute [26-1] is returned from the RADIUS server in the Access-Accept message, the subscriber details are displayed in the output of the show subscribers command. Also, you can use the show subscribers summary command to view the consolidated information on active subscribers.
• If you configure RADIUS authentication for IP subscribers on the default router by using the aaa authentication ip default radius command and the Ipv6-Virtual-Router VSA attribute [26-45] is returned from the RADIUS server in the Access-Accept message, the subscriber details are displayed in the output of the show subscribers ipv6 command. Also, you can use the show subscribers summary command to view the consolidated information on active subscribers.
