NIC Agents Used in the NIC Configuration Scenarios

When you configure a NIC configuration scenario, you use the basic configuration for each NIC agent in the scenario, but modify properties such as directory properties to make the agent configuration compatible with your SRC configuration. The NIC configuration scenario that you use determines which agents appear in your configuration.

Table 10 lists all agents that are available in the various configuration scenarios.

Table 10: NIC Agents

Agent Name	Type of Agent	Type of Information
AcctIdIp	SAE plug-in	Mappings of accounting IDs of a subscribers to the SAE IOR and subscriber IP addresses to accounting ID(s).
DnVr	SAE plug-in	Mappings of enterprise access DNs to VRs.
Enterprise	Directory	List of enterprise names.
IpAcctId	SAE plug-in	Mappings of subscriber IP addresses to accounting IDs.
IpLoginName	SAE plug-in	Mappings of IP addresses to login names.
IpSaeId	SAE client	Mappings of IP addresses to SAEs managing a subscriber. Uses the SAE remote interface to determine which SAEs are managing a subscriber at resolution time.
IpVr	SAE plug-in	Mappings of IP addresses to VRs.
LoginNameVr	SAE plug-in	Mappings of login names to VRs.
LoginSaeId	SAE client	Mappings of login names to SAEs . Uses the SAE remote interface to determine which SAEs are managing a subscriber at resolution time.
PoolInterface	Directory	Mappings of IP pools to an interface. Note: Reads a JUNOSe routing table and extracts the VR name to perform the mapping.
PoolVr	Directory	Mappings of IP pools to VRs.
UserNameVr	SAE plug-in	Mappings of subscriber IP addresses to accounting IDs.
VrSaeId	Directory	Reads information about virtual routers and the mappings between virtual routers and SAEs.

Table 11 shows the types of agents that each configuration scenario uses.
