Automatic Login of Subscribers
By using a NIC with the VTA, you can enable subscribers who connect to the SDX network through a JUNOSe router to log in through the VTA Web portals. The NIC must map the subscriber's IP address to one of the following values:
- Subscriber's login name
- Subscriber's DN
- Name of the interface and VR to which the subscriber connects
The value to which this NIC maps the subscriber's IP address depends on the information that identifies subscribers in your SDX configuration.
If subscribers connect to the network through a JUNOS routing platform or you choose not implement this NIC with a JUNOSe router, you can provide subscribers with access to this information through another method, such as a central login page where subscribers can enter their usernames and passwords.
