DSL Forum Vendor-Specific Attributes

You can use the radius include dsl-forum-attributes command to control the inclusion of a set of DSL Forum VSAs in Access-Request, Acct-Start, Acct-Stop, and (if Acct-Stop messages are specified) Interim-Acct messages that the router sends to RADIUS.

The DSL Forum VSAs, as defined in RFC 4679—DSL Forum Vendor-Specific RADIUS Attributes (September 2006), convey information about the associated subscriber for and data rate of the DSL. A service provider might find it useful to enable inclusion of the DSL Forum VSAs in RADIUS messages in order to bill subscribers for different classes of service based on the data rate of their DSL connection.

Note: JUNOSe software also supports several Juniper Networks VSAs that you can use to include DSL-related information. See ANCP-Related Juniper Networks VSAs and Juniper Networks VSAs .

The router receives data containing one or more of the DSL Forum VSAs from a DSLAM connected to the router via a PPPoE interface. When you enable the inclusion of the DSL Forum VSAs in these RADIUS messages, the router includes all of the following attributes in the specified message type, provided that the VSA is available in the information that the router receives from the DSLAM.

Note: The router uses the vendor ID assigned to the DSL Forum (3561, or DE9 in hexadecimal format) by the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) for the DSL Forum VSAs.

radius include dsl-forum-attributes

Use to include the set of DSL Forum VSAs in Access-Request, Acct-Start, and Acct-Stop messages that the router sends to RADIUS. If you enable inclusion of the DSL Forum VSAs in Acct-Stop messages, the router also includes the VSAs in Interim-Acct messages.
You can control inclusion of the DSL Forum VSAs in the specified message type by enabling or disabling this command. Inclusion is disabled by default.
When you enable inclusion of the DSL Forum VSAs for a specified message type, the router includes in that message all of the DSL Forum attributes that it receives from the DSLAM.
Examplehost1(config)#radius include dsl-forum-attributes access-request enable
Use the no version to restore the default behavior, disable.
