New Features in JUNOS Release 10.1 for M Series, MX Series, and T Series Routers

The following features have been added to JUNOS Release 10.1. Following the description is the title of the manual or manuals to consult for further information.

Class of Service

Intelligent oversubscription service support (MX Series routers with Trio
MPC/MIC interfaces)—Arriving packets are assigned to one of two traffic classes (control and best-effort) based on their header types and destination MAC address. This allows for lower priority packets to be dropped more intelligently when oversubscription occurs. Only packets mapped to queue 3 are marked as control packets. Protocols such as telnet, FTP, and SSH that are mapped to queue 0 are classified as best-effort. No configuration is necessary, but the queue assignments can be altered with a multifield classifier.
[Class of Service]
CoS aspects of the MPC/MIC (MX Series routers with Trio MPC/MIC
interfaces)—Cover all aspects of CoS configuration for this hardware combination. Support includes shaping rates at the queue level, configurable bandwidth profiles with percentages, dynamic bandwidth allocation among different services, scheduler node scaling, and delay buffer allocation. To configure, include the relevant statements at the [edit class-of-service] hierarchy level and apply them if necessary at other hierarchy levels such as the [edit interfaces] hierarchy level.
[Class of Service, Network Interfaces]
Per-priority shaping (MX Series platforms with Trio MPC/MIC
interfaces)—Enables you to configure a separate shaping rate for each of the five priority levels so that higher priority services such as voice and video do not starve lower priority services such as data. To configure, include the
shaping-rate-(excess | priority)-level rate [ burst-size burst ] statement at the [edit class-of-service traffic-control-profiles tcp-name] hierarchy level and apply the traffic
control profile at the [edit interfaces] hierarchy level.
[Class of Service]
6 JUNOS Software Release Notes for Juniper Networks M Series Multiservice Edge Routers, MX Series Ethernet Service Routers,
and T Series Core Routers
New Features in JUNOS Release 10.1 for M Series, MX Series, and T Series Routers
Distribute excess bandwidth among different services for a subscriber (MX
Series routers with Trio MPC/MIC interfaces)—Service providers often use tiered services that must carry excess bandwidth as traffic patterns vary. By default, excess bandwidth between a configured guaranteed rate and shaping rate is shared equally among all queues, which might not be optimal for all subscribers to a service. You can control the distribution of this excess bandwidth with the excess-rate statement. To configure the excess rate for a traffic control profile, include the excess-rate statement at the [edit class-of-service
traffic-control-profiles tcp-name] hierarchy level and apply the traffic control profile
at the [edit interfaces] hierarchy level. To configure the excess rate for a queue, include the excess-rate and excess-priority statements at the [edit class-of-service
scheduler scheduler-name] hierarchy level.
[Class of Service]
Scheduler node scaling (MX Series routers with Trio MPC/MIC interfaces)—The
hardware supports multiple levels of scheduler nodes. In per-unit-scheduling mode, each logical interface (unit) can have four or eight queues and has a dedicated level 3 scheduler node. The logical interfaces share a common level 2 node (one per port). In hierarchical-scheduling mode, a set of logical interfaces, each with four or eight queues, has a level 2 CoS profile and one of its logical interface children has a level 3 CoS profile. To better control system resources in hierarchical-scheduling mode, you can limit the number of hierarchical levels in the scheduling hierarchy to two. In this case, all logical interfaces and interface sets with CoS profiles share a single (dummy) level 2 node, thereby increasing the maximum number of logical interfaces with CoS profiles (the interface sets must be at level 3). To configure scheduler node scaling, include the
maximum-hierarchy-levels statement at the [edit interfaces xe-fpc/pic/port hierarchical-scheduler] hierarchy level. The only supported value is 2.
[Class of Service, Network Interfaces]
Forwarding-class aliases (M320 and T Series routers)—Enable you to configure
up to 16 forwarding classes and 8 queues, with multiple forwarding classes assigned to single queues. To configure, include the class and queue-num statements at the [edit class-of-service forwarding-classes] hierarchy level.
[Class of Service]
VLAN shaping on aggregate devices (MX Series routers with Trio MPC/MIC
interfaces)—VLAN shaping (per-unit scheduling) is supported on aggregated Ethernet interfaces when link protection is enabled on the aggregated Ethernet interface. When VLAN shaping is configured on aggregate Ethernet interfaces with link protection enabled, the shaping is applied to the active child link. To configure link protection on aggregated Ethernet interfaces, include the
link-protection statement at the [edit interfaces aex aggregated-ether-options]
hierarchy level. Traffic passes only through the designated primary link. This includes transit traffic and locally generated traffic on the router. When the primary link fails, traffic is routed through the backup link. You also can reverse traffic, from the designated backup link to the designated primary link. To revert back to sending traffic to the primary designated link when traffic is passing through the designated backup link, use the revert command; for example, request
interfaces revert ae0. To configure a primary and a backup link, include the primary and backup statements at the [edit interfaces ge-fpc/pic/port gigether-options 802.3ad aex] hierarchy level or the [edit interfaces xe-fpc/pic/port fastether-options 802.3ad aex] hierarchy level. To disable link protection, delete

[Class of Service, Network Interfaces]
with Trio MPC/MIC interfaces)—Enables you to configure DSCP marking for GRE encapsulated packets that aligns with the service provider core CoS policy for an MVPN. To configure, include the DSCP rewrite-rule dscp dscp-rule-name with the values at the [edit class-of-service] hierarchy level and then apply the rewrite rule to the core-facing multicast interface at the [edit class-of-service
interfaces] hierarchy level.
[Class of Service]
and TX Matrix routers with G-FPC4, ST-FPC4, and ST-FPC4.1)—Supports a WAN bandwidth of 100 Gbps in addition to the following features:
Intelligent handling of oversubscribed traffic
Line rate operation on up to five 10-Gigabit Ethernet ports
Tap features, such as flexible encapsulation, source address (SA) MAC
learning, MAC accounting, and MAC policing
Stacked virtual LAN (VLAN) tag and VLAN rewrite functionalities
[Network Interfaces, Class of Service, PIC Guide]
Intelligent oversubscription services (MX Series with 16-port 10-Gigabit
Ethernet MPC with SFP+)—The 16-port 10-Gigabit Ethernet Modular Port Concentrator (MPC) is an oversubscribed configuration. Consequently, it is necessary to protect control traffic over best-effort traffic as soon as packets enter the line card. To do this, packets entering the line card are assigned a preclassifier control traffic class according to the header types (such as destination MAC addresses, and Layer 4 ports) in the packet. The preclassifier provides a good way to classify and queue important control traffic in a different high-priority queue from that used for best-effort traffic.
The preclassifier (control or best effort) is assigned prior to packets being accepted into the initial stream and is used by the line card as an early designation (before any class-of-service configuration is applied). When oversubscription occurs, control traffic will be queued separately and should not be subject to any dropped packets.
The Layer 2 protocols supporting the preclassifier are:
802.1ah
802.1g
802.1x
802.3ad

JUNOS 10.1 Software Release Notes
IEEE 802.1ak-2007 MVRP (MX Series routers)The Multiple VLAN Registration
Elevated packet drops during oversubscription (MX Series routers with Trio
Protocol (MVRP) is a standards-based Layer 2 network protocol used among switches to dynamically share and update VLAN information with other bridges. VLAN information exchanged includes:
The set of VLANs that currently have active members
The ports through which the active members can be reached
To operate MVRP, edge ports should have the static VLAN configuration. The edge ports will not be configured for MVRP. MVRP is only enabled on the core-facing trunk ports where no static VLANs are configured.
To configure MVRP, include the mvrp statement and desired options at the [edit
protocols] hierarchy level.
[Class of Service]
MPC/MIC interfaces)—During periods of oversubscription, the WRED process drops more packets than expected from relatively full queues. There is no configuration for this feature, which transparently applies scaling to oversubscribed queues.

Root System Domain (RSD) configuration of logical interface filters on shared
interfaces (JCS1200 platform)—Enables Root System Domain (RSD) configuration support for logical interface filters on shared interfaces. In previous releases, logical interface filters were configured on each Protected System Domain (PSD). This release supports configuration on the RSD.
To configure a logical interface filter on the RSD, apply the firewall filter to the logical interface on the shared interface by including the filter output filter-name statement at the [edit interfaces interface-name unit logical-unit-number] hierarchy level on the RSD.
Filtering is performed on the PSD, but logical interface filters configured on the RSD are applied automatically by the PSD. Filters configured on the RSD can co-exist with filters configured on the PSD. Counter statistics related to PSD filtering are available on the RSD.

Two new AC power supply modules in chassis—The JUNOS Software now
supports two new AC power supply modules on T640 and T1600 routers: AC Power Entry Module 10kW US and AC Power Entry Module 10kW EMEA (for U.S. and EMEA markets, respectively). The two Power Entry Modules (PEMs) cannot interoperate and the JUNOS Software reports an alarm when they do. The show chassis environment pem command output will show AC Input: status instead of DC Input: status and the Temperature will show the actual temperature reading. Two new power supply descriptions, US and EMEA, are added to distinguish the new modules from existing ones in the output of the show chassis
hardware command output.

identification field in the outer IP header of packets encapsulated with generic routing encapsulation (GRE), so that reassembly of the packets is possible after fragmentation. The previous CLI constraint check that requires you to configure either the clear-dont-fragment-bit statement or a tunnel key with the
allow-fragmentation statement is no longer enforced. There are no associated
changes to the CLI statements or operational mode commands.
NOTE: For other routers, the earlier configuration constraint check still holds.

PIC (M Series and T Series routers)—Provides increased channelization and an improved QoS model; with channelization capabilities and scaling that make it ideal for edge aggregation.
Improved QoS functionality supports policing based on DSCP/IPPREC/EXP, five priority levels, two shaping rates (CIR and PIR), option to use shared scheduling on set of logical interfaces, DSCP rewrite on ingress, and configurable delay buffers for queueing. The QoS capabilities provide service differentiation for service providers.
The interface configuration syntax of existing IQ PICs is retained, but configuration limits are changed to match the augmented capabilities of IQE PICs.
All functionality available on the 4-port Channelized OC12 IQ Type 2 PIC is supported by this PIC.

MPLS Applications

New Features in JUNOS Release 10.1 for M Series, MX Series, and T Series Routers
[JUNOS XML API Operational Reference]
Static LSPs at the ingress router—You can now configure a named static LSP
at the ingress router. This feature allows you to configure multiple static LSPs between two specific routers. It is not necessary to configure unique names for static versus dynamic LSPs (a static LSP could have the same name as a dynamic LSP configured on the same router). This feature also allows you to configure a single-hop static LSP by specifying either an explicit null label or no label.
To configure a static LSP on an ingress router, include the ingress statement at the [edit protocols mpls static-label-switched-path static-lsp-name] hierarchy level. You must also configure the to and next-hop statements at the [edit protocols mpls
static-label-switched-path static-lsp-name] hierarchy level. You can optionally
configure the push statement. If you configure the push statement, you must specify a non-reserved label in the range of 0 through 1,048,575.
To display information about ingress static LSPs, issue the show mpls lsp static
ingress command. To display routing table entries corresponding to ingress static
LSPs, issue the show route table inet.3 command or the show route next-hop
next-hop-ip-address static-label-switched-path static-lsp-name command.
[MPLS, Routing Protocols and Policies Command Reference]
Static LSPs at the transit router—You can now configure a named static LSP
on a transit router. To configure a transit static LSP, include the transit statement at the [edit protocols mpls static-label-switched-path path-name] hierarchy level and include the next-hop statement at the [edit protocols mpls
static-label-switched-path static-lsp-name] hierarchy level. You must also configure
either the pop or the swap statement at the [edit protocols mpls
static-label-switched-path static-lsp-name transit] hierarchy level. If you configure
the swap statement, you must specify a non-reserved label in the range of 0 through 1,048,575.
The transit static LSP is added to the mpls.0 routing table. You should configure each static LSP using a unique name and at least a unique incoming label on the router. Each transit static LSP can have one or more incoming labels configured. If a transit LSP has more than one incoming label, each would effectively operate as an independent LSP, meaning you could configure all of the related LSP attributes for each incoming label. The range of incoming labels available is limited to the standard static LSP range of labels (1,000,000 through 1,048,575). To verify that a static LSP has been added to the routing table, issue the show
route table mpls.0 command.
[MPLS]
Bypass static LSPs—You can now configure a named bypass static LSP for ingress
and transit static LSPs, to be used if the primary LSP fails. To configure a bypass static LSP, include the bypass statement at the [edit protocols mpls
static-label-switched-path path-name] hierarchy level. You must also configure the to and next-hop statements at the [edit protocols mpls static-label-switched-path static-lsp-name bypass] hierarchy level. You can also configure link and node
protection for static LSPs. If you configure both link and node protection for the static LSP and the primary link fails, the node protection feature is preferred.
New Features in JUNOS Release 10.1 for M Series, MX Series, and T Series Routers 21
JUNOS 10.1 Software Release Notes
Static LSP revert timer—You can now configure a revert timer for ingress and
[MPLS]
transit static LSPs. After traffic has been switched to a bypass static LSP, it is typically switched back to the primary static LSP when it comes back up. There is a configurable delay in the time (called the revert timer) between when the primary static LSP comes up and when traffic is reverted back to it from the bypass static LSP. This delay is needed because when the primary LSP comes back up, it is not certain whether all of the interfaces on the downstream node of the primary path have come up yet. The delay range is from 0 through 65,535 seconds and is configurable at each interface. If you configure a value of 0, traffic is never automatically reverted to the primary LSP, even if it does come back up. The only exception is if the bypass LSP goes down. The default value is 5 seconds. To configure the revert timer for an interface, include the
protection-revert-time statement at the [edit protocols mpls interface interface-name static] hierarchy level. You can display the revert timer value for an interface
using the show mpls interface detail command.
[MPLS]

Multiplay

Static LSP traceoptions—You can now configure the traceoptions statement to trace messages related to ingress and transit static LSPs by including the static flag at the [edit protocols mpls traceoptions flag] hierarchy level.
[MPLS]
Static LSP statistics—You can now display statistics related to MPLS static LSPs
by issuing the show mpls static-lsp statistics command and the monitor static-lsp
lsp-name command. The show mpls static-lsp statistics command includes the
following options: ingress, transit, bypass, and name static-lsp-name. This command displays the packet count and byte count for the static LSP. You can clear the statistics for static LSPs by issuing the clear mpls static-lsp statistics command. You can also log the static LSP statistics to a file by specifying a file for the MPLS statistics statement. You can configure this file using the set protocols mpls
statistics interval interval file filename command.

Border Gateway Function (BGF) RTCP XR reporting—Provides support for the
H.248 RECRTCPXR (Received RTCP Extended Reporting) and RECRTCPXRBM (Received RTCP XR Burst Mode) reporting packages. The RECRTCPXR package defines properties and statistics that provide extended quality-of-service metrics received from the gateway controller. The RECRTCPXRBM package defines properties and statistics that provide burst metrics received from the gateway controller. Report data is available to the BGF when the gateway controller sends the relevant XR reporting packets and RTCP monitoring is active. Not all gateway controllers send the extended reporting packets. When XR packets are not received, all XR fields are displayed as 0s (zeroes).
You can use the following existing command to display the RECRTCPXR and RECRTCPXRBM report fields for a given gate-id: show services pgcp gate
gateway-name statistics gate-id gate-id.

Integrated Multi-Services Gateway (IMSG) media release—Enables the IMSG
SIP function to release media resources when handling calls between two entities in the same media realm (the virtual interface specified in the PGCP configuration). When the new call usage policies for both entities allow media release, media resources are shared instead of being reserved for both entities. This improves the utilization of media resources and prevents latency.
To configure media release, enter the media-release statement at the [edit services

Routing Protocols

BGP support for MDT-SAFI updates without a route targetBy default, the
Distributed periodic packet management support for aggregate
JUNOS Software requires MDT-SAFI updates to have a route target attached. Some vendors do not support attaching route targets to the MDT-SAFI updates. For interoperability with these vendors, the JUNOS Software allows importing MDT-SAFI updates without a route target being attached. The MDT-SAFI is imported if the MDT default address in the MDT-SAFI prefix matches the MDT default address configured within the routing instance.
To configure the MDT default address, include the group-address group-address statement at the [edit routing-instances routing-instance-name provider-tunnel
pim-ssm] hierarchy level.

interfaces—Extends support for the Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD) protocol to use the periodic packet management daemon (PPMD) to distribute IPv4 sessions over aggregate interfaces. PPMD automatically runs on the Routing Engine and the Packet Forwarding Engine. To disable PPMD on the Packet Forwarding Engine only, include the no-delegate-processing statement at the [edit
routing-options ppm] hierarchy level. Only IPv4 BFD sessions over aggregate
interfaces are supported. PPMD does not support IPv6 BFD sessions over an aggregate interface or MPLS BFD sessions over an aggregate interface.
[Routing Protocols]
to an upstream router when identical join messages are sent on the same multiaccess network. This improves scalability and efficiency by reducing the number of identical messages sent to the same router.
This feature is useful when there are a large number of routers on a multiaccess network that will be receiving traffic for a particular multicast group. Suppressing joins at each router saves bandwidth and reduces heavy processing at upstream routers.
PIM join suppression can be implemented per multiaccess interface and per multicast group. It is only needed on downstream routers, and does not need to be implemented on upstream routers in order for it to work.
A tracking bit field on the LAN prune delay hello option is used in the CLI to enable join suppression for downstream routers. By default, the tracking bit is set to 1 and PIM join suppression is disabled. This is the default behavior for JUNOS Release 10.0 and earlier for Juniper Networks routers. With join suppression disabled (T-bit=1), a downstream receiving router will send join messages even if it receives identical joins for the same upstream router, as long as no other router in the network has join suppression enabled. When the tracking bit is set to 0 for at least one neighbor on this interface, join suppression is enabled, and the receiving router will defer sending identical joins. Use reset-tracking-bit in the CLI to enable join suppression.
When an upstream router receives a join message, its behavior is independent of the value of the T-bit in the hello option. When join suppression is triggered, a timer is activated and all sending of joins is deferred for the length of time

specified by the timer. This is a random timer with value ranges between 0 to Max Override Interval. The timer is reset each time join suppression is triggered, and the defer period is dependent on other settings in the LAN prune delay, including propagation-delay and override-interval.
Use the show protocols PIM command to see if the reset-tracking-bit is present, indicating that the T-bit has been changed to 0 and PIM join suppression is enabled.
[Multicast, Routing Protocols and Policies Command Reference]
Improve IGMPv3 snooping performance using bulk updates 1a3,14—Whenever
an individual interface joins or leaves a multicast group, a new next-hop entry is installed in the routing table and the forwarding table. This can require a lot of processing time when the frequency and number of IGMP join and leave messages are high.
A new configuration statement can be used to accumulate outgoing interface changes and perform bulk updates to the routing table and forwarding table. This reduces the processing time and memory overhead required when processing join and leave messages, thus improving scalability.This is useful for applications such as Internet Protocol television (IPTV), in which users changing channels can create thousands of interfaces joining or leaving a group in a short period of time.
To enable bulk updates of join and leave messages, include the next-hop-hold-time statement and specify the number of milliseconds to wait before processing the messages. The next-hop-hold-time statement can be configured at the [edit
routing-instances routing-instance-name] hierarchy level. The hold time can be
configured from 1 to 1000 milliseconds. The routing instance must be of type VPLS or virtual-switch.
If the next-hop-hold-time statement is deleted from the router configuration, IGMP bulk updates are disabled. The configuration of the next-hop-hold-time statement can be verified using the show multicast snooping route command.
[Multicast, Routing Protocols and Policies Command Reference]
Hub-and-spoke support for multiprotocol BGP-based multicast VPNs with
PIM-SSM GRE S-PMSI transport—Multiprotocol BGP-based (MBGP) multicast VPNs (also referred to as next-generation Layer 3 VPN multicast) can be configured using protocol-independent multicast source-specific multicast (PIM-SSM) selective provider multicast service interface (S-PMSI) tunnels in a hub-and-spoke topology.
This feature is useful in the following scenarios:
Customer sources and rendezvous points (RPs) are located only in the hub
sites and customer receivers are located in spoke sites or other hub sites.
Customer sources are located only in spoke sites and customer receivers are
located only in hub sites.
To configure MBGP MVPNs to use PIM-SSM S-PMSI tunnels in a hub-and-spoke topology:

Services Applications

New Features in JUNOS Release 10.1 for M Series, MX Series, and T Series Routers
FlowTapLite enhancements—Extend support for interception of IPv6 packets
on MX Series, M120, and M320 routers. For IPv6, the global filter taps packets from the default IPv6 routing table and does not tap packets from other VRFs. To tap packets from other VRFs, you can install separate VRF filters. For IPv4, the global filter intercepts all IPv4 packets irrespective of the VRF. The limit for filters remains 3000, which is now shared between IPv4 and IPv6. For example, you can install 3000 IPv4 filters or 3000 IPv6 filters, or a combination of both that totals 3000. You cannot install 3000 IPv4 filters and 3000 IPv6 filters.
No new statements are required to configure these enhancements. However, whether you use IPv6 flow tapping or not, you must include the family inet6 statement at the [edit interfaces vt-fpc/pic/port unit logical-unit-number] hierarchy level.

In this case, 63,999 pp0 interfaces are configured under the same VLAN logical interface and the one remaining logical interface is consumed for the single VLAN.
At the other extreme, when you configure each subscriber on a separate VLAN (using stacked VLANs), up to 32,000 PPP connections per chassis are supported.

New Features in JUNOS Release 10.1 for M Series, MX Series, and T Series Routers
In this case, each subscriber connection consumes two logical interfaces: one for the VLAN logical interface and one for the pp0 logical interface.
The M120, M320, and MX Series routers support a maximum of 2000 different dynamic profiles per chassis. [Subscriber Access]
Support for dynamic CoS for subscriber interfaces on Trio MPC/MIC interfaces
(MX Series routers)—Enables you to configure dynamic CoS for subscriber interfaces on Trio MPC/MIC interfaces that are now available on MX Series routers. In earlier releases, dynamic CoS was supported on EQ DPCs only.
To configure dynamic CoS on Trio MPC/MIC interfaces, you must enable the hierarchical scheduler for an interface at the [edit interfaces] hierarchy level. You can then configure dynamic CoS parameters at the [edit dynamic-profiles
profile-name class-of-service] hierarchy level. The CoS parameters are dynamically
applied to subscribers services when they log in or change services.
Trio MPC/MIC interfaces support CoS for the following interface types: static VLAN, demux, static and dynamic PPPoE, and aggregated Ethernet subscriber interfaces.
In this release, hierarchical CoS for aggregated Ethernet interfaces is supported on the Trio MPC/MIC product when a static VLAN configured over the aggregated Ethernet interface. It is not supported for static or dynamic demux subscriber interfaces configured over aggregated Ethernet.

Support for CoS on dynamic PPPoE subscriber interfaces (MX Series
routers)—Enables you to configure CoS for dynamic PPPoE subscriber interfaces on Trio MPC/MIC interfaces available on MX Series routers and the Intelligent Queuing 2 (IQ2) PIC on M120 and M320 Series routers.
In earlier releases, only static CoS was supported for static PPPoE subscriber interfaces configured on IQ2 PICs on M120 and M320 Series routers.
To configure CoS for a dynamic PPPoE interface, configure the shaping and scheduling parameters at the [edit dynamic-profiles profile-name class-of-service] hierarchy level. You then attach the traffic control profile to the dynamic PPPoE interface by including the output-traffic-control-profile profile-name statement at the [edit dynamic-profiles profile-name class-of-service interfaces
$junos-interface-ifd-name unit $junos-underlying-interface-unit] hierarchy level.
When the subscriber logs in, PPP supplies pp0 as the $junos-interface-ifd-name variable, and supplies the PPPoE logical interface number for the
$junos-underlying-interface-unit variable.
[Subscriber Access]
Support for IPv6 for dynamic subscriber services (MX Series routers)—Enables
you to configure IPv6 addressing and prefixes for dynamic subscriber services. In earlier releases, dynamic subscriber services supported IPv4 addressing only. You can now configure both IPv4 and IPv6 addressing in the same dynamic profile to grant access and services to IPv4 and IPv6 subscribers.
In this release, IPv6 addressing is supported for static and dynamic VLAN subscriber interfaces and dynamic demux subscriber interfaces.

JUNOS 10.1 Software Release Notes
To enable IPv6 addressing for a static VLAN subscriber interface, include the
family inet6 statement at the [edit dynamic profiles profile-name interfaces interface-name unit logical-unit-number] hierarchy level.
To enable IPv6 addressing for a demux subscriber interface, include the family
inet6 statement at the [edit dynamic profiles profile-name interfaces demux0]
hierarchy level. To enable an IPv6 source address for the interface, specify the new $junos-subscriber-ipv6–address predefined variable with the demux-source statement at the [edit dynamic profiles profile-name interfaces demux0 unit
$junos-interface-unit family inet6] hierarchy level. The values for this variable are
supplied to the interface by DHCP when the subscriber logs in.
This feature enables you to configure dynamic, classic, and fast update firewall filters for IPv6 families. In addition, you can configure aggregate CoS when IPv4 and IPv6 families share a logical interface, and per-family CoS when IPv4 and IPv6 families do not share a logical interface (such as a demux interface).
The following new predefined variables have been added to implement IPv6 addressing for subscriber services:
$junos-input-ipv6-filter
$junos-ipv6-ndra-prefix
$junos-output-ipv6-filter
$junos-preferred-source-ipv6-address
RADIUS supports activation, deactivation, and change of authorization (CoA) for IPv6 services. The following new RADIUS attributes and VSAs have been added to implement IPv6 addressing for subscriber services:
DefinitionDynamic Profile Variable
Route prefix of an IPv6 access route.$junos-framed-route-ipv6-address-prefix
Next-hop address of an IPv6 access route.$junos-framed-route-ipv6-nexthop
