22 Framed-Route Routing information (IPv4 managed route) to be configured on the NAS for 
a host (DHCP, PPPOE, ARP, or data-triggered) that operates as a router 
without NAT (routed subscriber host). The route included in the Framed-
Route attribute is accepted as a managed route only if its next-hop points 
to the hosts ip-address, if the next-hop address equals 0.0.0.0, or if the 
included route is a valid classful network, in which case the subnet-mask 
is omitted. If neither is applicable, this specific framed-route attribute is 
ignored and the host is instantiated without this specific managed route 
installed. A Framed-Route attribute is also ignored if the SAP does not 
have anti-spoof configured to nh-mac (the host will be installed as a 
standalone host without a managed route). Any routes above the 
configured Limits are silently ignored. Optionally, a metric, tag or protocol 
preference can be specified for the managed route. If the metrics are not 
specified, specified in a wrong format, or specified with out-of-range 
values, then the default values are used for all metrics: metric=0, no tag 
and preference=0. 
If an identical managed route is associated with different routed 
subscriber hosts in the context of the same IES/VPRN service up to max-
ecmp-routes managed routes are installed in the routing table (configured 
as ecmp max-ecmp-routes in the routing instance). Candidate ECMP 
Framed-Routes have identical prefix, equal lowest preference and equal 
lowest metric. The “lowest ip next-hop” is the tie breaker if more candidate 
ECMP Framed-Routes are available than the configured max-ecmp-
routes. Other identical managed routes are shadowed (not installed in the 
routing table) and an event is logged. An alternative to RADIUS managed 
routes are managed routes via host dynamic BGP peering.
Valid RADIUS learned managed routes can be included in RADIUS 
accounting messages with following configuration: configure 
subscriber-mgmt radius-accounting-policy name include-radius-
attribute framed-route. Associated managed routes for an instantiated 
routed subscriber host are included in RADIUS accounting messages 
independent of the state of the managed route (Installed, Shadowed or 
HostInactive).
25 Class Attribute sent by the RADIUS server to the NAS in an Access-Accept or 
CoA and is sent unmodified by the NAS to the Accounting server as part 
of the Accounting-Request packet. Strings with a length longer than the 
defined Limits are accepted but truncated to this boundary.
