RADIUS or Service Manager
We recommend that you choose either RADIUS or Service Manager to create a single
parameter instance. If you use both RADIUS and Service Manager, parameter
instances activated using Service Manager take precedence.
Interoperability with Other Service Components
Service Manager removes QoS profiles and parameter instances if other components
in the service definition (for example, policies) cause an error.
QoS Statistics
Service Manager counts references of parameter instances in profiles. The reference
count is incremented each time the parameter is configured through the CLI, RADIUS,
or Service Manager. The reference count is decremented each time the parameter
is unconfigured, such as through service deactivation. Modifications to parameter
instances are also reference counted, using a separate reference count. Parameter
instances are removed when both reference counts reach zero.
Service Manager also counts references of modified parameters in profiles using the
add keyword. The reference count is incremented each time the parameter is modified
though service activation with the add keyword. The reference count is decremented
each time the parameter is modified through service deactivation. References of
regular parameter instances are also counted, using a separate reference count.
Parameter instances are removed when both reference counts reach zero.
Ranges
You can verify ranges for parameter instances by specifying a range in the parameter
definition using the range command.
When activating the service or modifying parameters, Service Manager verifies the
value of the parameter instance to be within the specified range and generates an
informational log message indicating the value is outside the range. Service Manager
does not verify ranges when you specify the parameter instances within profiles at
the time of configuration.
Configuring the Service Manager License
Use the Service Manager license to enable full Service Manager application support.
You can create a maximum of 10 subscriber sessions when the Service Manager
license is not enabled. If you disable the Service Manager license and more than 10
subscriber sessions exist, you cannot enable any new sessions however, all existing
active subscriber sessions continue to function.
For information about the maximum number of subscriber sessions supported, see
JUNOSe Release Notes, Appendix A, System Maximums.
