Configuring a Policy and Charging Enforcement Function Profile for Subscriber Management

Note:

Starting in Junos OS Release 19.3R2, policy and charging enforcement function (PCEF) profiles are also supported if you enable Next Gen Services on a router with the MX-SPC3 card.

A PCEF profile specifies a set of PCC rules and rulebases that can be assigned to a subscriber, and assigns a precedence value to each predefined rule. The PCEF profile is used in one of the following ways:

  • A static PCEF profile is specified in a dynamic profile. The dynamic profile indicates whether to activate all the rules in the PCEF profile or just a subset of the rules.

  • A dynamic PCEF profile identifies the PCC rules and rulebases that a PCRF can directly activate.

Note:

You cannot change a PCEF profile while it is being used by a subscriber. To modify the PCEF profile, you must log off the subscribers that are using the PCEF profile.

To configure a PCEF profile:

  1. Specify a name for the PCEF profile.
  2. Specify one or more PCC rules and a precedence for each rule. A lower precedence value indicates a higher precedence. The precedence assigned must be unique among the configured PCC rules, including the PCC rules that are assigned a precedence within a PCC rulebase.

    • For a PCEF profile that is specified in a dynamic profile, specify the rules under static-policy-control.

    • For a PCEF profile that identifies the PCC rules that a PCRF can directly activate, specify the rules under dynamic-policy-control.

  3. Specify one or more PCC rulebases.

    • For a PCEF profile that is specified in a dynamic profile, specify the rulebases under static-policy-control.

    • For a PCEF profile that identifies the PCC rules that a PCRF can directly activate, specify the rulebases under dynamic-policy-control.
