You can use the JUNOSe subscriber management application to configure and manage IP subscribers associated with a dynamic bridged Ethernet interface column. The subscriber management application uses an IP service profile to manage and authenticate IP subscribers with RADIUS. An IP service profile contains user and password information, and is used in a route map for subscriber management and to authenticate subscribers with RADIUS.
In this configuration, the IP service profile provides the subscriber’s authentication parameters, and the subscriber management application acts as the authenticating layer to obtain information from RADIUS for configuration of dynamic IP subscribers. To assign the IP service profile to the interface profile from which the dynamic bridged Ethernet interface is created, you use the bridge1483 service-profile command in Profile Configuration mode.
If stateful SRP switchover is disabled or not running on your router, you can continue to use the subscriber command to configure IP subscribers on dynamic bridged Ethernet interfaces to support RADIUS authentication.
Alternatively, you can use the subscriber management application to create and configure dynamic IP interfaces regardless of whether stateful SRP switchover is running on the router. In addition, using subscriber management enables you to take advantage of several useful features such as the IP inactivity timer.
In the event that an interface profile for a dynamic bridged Ethernet interface includes the subscriber command to configure a local subscriber as well as the bridge1483 service-profile command to reference an IP service profile, the values specified with the subscriber command take precedence. The router ignores the values in the IP service profile in this case.
For details about using the subscriber management application to configure RADIUS authentication for IP subscribers on dynamic bridged Ethernet interfaces, see Configuring Subscriber Management for IP Subscribers on Dynamic Bridged Ethernet Interfaces.
