Grouping similar users to profiles

Ooh!  I'll try the LDAP-Group.  wrt the Juniper-Local-User-Name VSA:

Once authenticated against LDAP the user is mapped to the NAS device where
there is a username called tier3 (or whatever you called it.  Could be
superduck).  That username is matched against a class which defines a
specific set of available commands.  The default classes on a juniper router
and switch (out of the box) are tier1 (read-only), tier2 (show and some
configure commands) and tier3 (or superuser).  The audits on both the NAS
and in the radius radacct log show the User-Name value as the LDAP uid.
When a user types a command such as 'edit' the NAS returns a
Juniper-Interactive-Command value = 'edit'.  In this way we have a full
record of every command each user types on any Juniper device in our
accounting logs.  Doing this provides very granular control over what users
have what permisisons and provides a mechanism for tracking, troubleshooting
and accountability.

Thanks Alan,
