New and Changed Features

We've introduced the following in Juniper BNG CUPS 24.2R1:

  • A local reserve option is added to the Juniper BNG CUPS' dynamic address pools feature. Local reserve is a BNG CUPS Controller configured set of prefix partitions from which sub-prefixes may be apportioned for use as pool prefixes. Local reserve serves both IPv4 and IPv6 prefixes. Local reserve can also act as a backup prefix source for APM when the APMi is disconnected.

  • Support for configuring dynamic VLAN subscriber interfaces using agent circuit identifier (ACI) information. Enables you to configure dynamic VLAN subscriber interfaces for DHCP and PPPoE subscribers based on ACI information. You can create ACI interface sets based on ACI or Agent Remote Id (ARI) information separately, ACI and ARI information together, or when neither information is present.

  • Support for single link targeting and minimum active links for pseudowire service interfaces over active-active redundant logical tunnel (RLT) interfaces. Targeting is supported for dynamic subscribers and dynamic interface sets. When targeting is enabled the subscriber is assigned a default targeting weight based on client type. The assigned targeting weight is configurable through the dynamic profile.

  • Increase the number of BNG User Planes that you can include in a load balancing group. As part of the BNG CUPS load balancing feature, you can configure load balancing groups with up to four different BNG User Planes.

  • Support for BNG CUPS telemetry sensors. Support includes all sensors under the resource path: /junos/system/subscriber-management/cups. BNG CUPS Controller receives data per controller and per subsystem (micro-service). Sensor data includes health information. For a complete list of all other sensors available under the sensor path /junos/system/subscriber-management/cups/, see Junos YANG Data Model Explorer.[See Junos YANG Data Model Explorer.]https://apps.juniper.net/telemetry-explorer/

  • Added the oversubscription-limit option for a backup BNG User Plane. At the system services resource-monitor subscribers-limit client-type any fpc slot-number hierarchy level, you can now configure a limit to the number of subscribers on a backup BNG User Plane.

  • Support for Address Pool Manager (APM) Release 3.2.1. Juniper BNG CUPS can interoperate with APM Release 3.2.1.

  • Support for Broadband Edge (BBE) Event Collection and Visualization Release 1.0.1. Juniper BNG CUPS is now optimized to interoperate with the Broadband Edge Event Collection and Visualization Release 1.0.1 application to provide a more powerful interface for monitoring Juniper BNG CUPS logs. See the Broadband Edge Event Collection and Visualization Installation Guide.

  • Support for BBE Cloudsetup Release 2.1.0. Juniper BNG CUPS can utilize BBE Cloudsetup Release 2.1.0 to set up the Kubernetes cluster environment in to which the BNG CUPS Controller is deployed. See BBE Cloudsetup Installation Guide
