Configuring Application-Aware Policy Control for Subscriber Management

This topic gives an overview of the tasks you perform to configure policy control for subscriber management based on the layer 7 application that traffic is using or on the particular Layer 3 or Layer 4 service data flow.

Note:

Starting in Junos OS Release 19.3R2, application-aware policy control is also supported if you have enabled Next Gen Services on the MX240, MX480 or MX960 router with the MX-SPC3 card.

To configure policy control:

  1. Install service packages on any MS-MPC PICs that perform application-aware policy control, or on the MX-SPC3 services card if you have enabled Next Gen Services on either the MX240, MX480, or MX860.
