Configuring Authentication Plug-Ins (SRC CLI)
You can perform the following tasks to configure authentication plug-ins:
Limiting Subscribers on Router Interfaces
You can limit the number of authenticated subscribers who connect to an IP interface on the router. This plug-in does not limit the number of unauthenticated subscribers who connect to an IP interface, and does not limit the number of subscribers who connect to a physical or link-layer interface. In the case of subscriber interfaces, the plug-in limits the number of authenticated subscribers on the subscriber interface but not on the underlying primary IP interface.
Use the following configuration statement to set up a plug-in that limits the number of subscribers who connect to interfaces:
To set up a plug-in that limits the number of subscribers on interfaces:
From configuration mode, access the custom RADIUS accounting plug-in configuration. In this sample procedure, the plug-in called subsLimit is configured in the west-region SAE group.
user@host# edit shared sae group west-region configuration plug-ins name subsLimit interface-subscriber-limitConfigure the number of authenticated subscribers who can connect to an IP interface on the router simultaneously.
[edit shared sae group west-region configuration plug-ins name subsLimit interface-subscriber-limit]user@host# set concurrent-subscribers concurrent-subscribers(Optional) Verify your configuration.
[edit shared sae group west-region configuration plug-ins name subsLimit interface-subscriber-limit] user@host# show concurrent-subscribers 1;
Configuring Basic RADIUS Authentication Plug-Ins
You can use basic RADIUS authentication plug-ins to send authentication information to an external RADIUS accounting server or a group of redundant servers. To communicate with nonredundant servers, you need to create additional instances of the plug-in.
Use the following configuration statements to set up basic RADIUS authentication plug-ins:

Configuring Flexible RADIUS Authentication Plug-Ins
Flexible RADIUS authentication plug-ins provide the same features as basic RADIUS authentication plug-ins. In addition, they allow you to customize RADIUS authentication packets that the system sends to RADIUS servers and specify which fields are included in the RADIUS authentication packets and what information is contained in the fields.
Use the following configuration statements to set up flexible RADIUS authentication plug-ins:

Configuring Custom RADIUS Authentication Plug-Ins
The custom RADIUS authentication plug-ins provide the same functions as the flexible RADIUS authentication plug-ins, but are designed to deliver better system performance. To use a custom plug-in, you must provide a Java class that implements the SPI defined in the RADIUS client library. Use this SPI to specify which fields and field values to include in RADIUS accounting packets. The RADIUS client library is part of the SAE core API.
See the documentation for the RADIUS client library
in the SAE core API documentation on the Juniper Networks website
at:
https://www.juniper.net/documentation/software/management/src/api-index.html
For a sample implementation, see in the SDK+AppSupport+Demos+Samples.tar.gz file on the
Juniper Networks website at: https://www.juniper.net/support/products/src/index.html#sw
The application is located the following directory: SDK/plugin/java/src/net/juniper/smgt/sample/radiuslib/RadiusPacketHandlerImpl.java.
