Introduzione
- Juniper Address Pool Manager (APM) is a cloud-native, container-based application running on a Kubernetes cluster that manages address pools in a network.
- APM monitors the IPv4 address pools on broadband network gateways (BNGs) in the network.
- When the free address utilization drops below a specified threshold on a BNG, APM adds unused prefixes from a centralized pool to the BNG’s address pool.
- APM, in cooperation with the BNG, monitors and links address pools in support of dynamic address allocation mechanisms for subscribers.
I benefici di APM sò i seguenti:
- Migliura l'efficienza di l'utilizazione di l'indirizzu
- Reduce l'overhead è a cumplessità di u monitoraghju è l'approvvigionamentu automatizendu u monitoraghju è l'approvvigionamentu.
- Permette a ricuperazione di prefissi sottoutilizati per a redistribuzione à e piscine chì ne necessitanu.
- Enables APM to work with the BNG CUPS Controller.
- These release notes accompany Juniper Address Pool Manager Release 3.4.0
Installazione
- Address Pool manager 3.4.0 installation requires the minimum system requirements listed in this section.
- NOTA: The system requirements listed in Table 1 on page 2 are for a single geographically located installation of Address Pool Manager (APM).
- For the system requirements of a multiple geographically located, multiple cluster setup, see Address Pool Manager Installation Guide.
- APM installs on a Kubernetes cluster comprised of physical or virtual machines (VMs).
- APM has been qualified against the single geographical cluster described in Table 1.
- For information on how to install APM, see Address Pool Manager Installation Guide.

Requisiti supplementari
- The BNG is a Juniper Networks MX Series router running Junos or a Juniper BNG CUPS Controller (BNG CUPS Controller).
We recommend the following releases:
- Junos OS Release 23.4R2-s5 or later
- BNG CUPS Controller 24.4R1 or later
- For APM, confirm that you have a juniper.net user account with permissions to download the APM software package.
- Download and install the APM software from a machine that will not be part of the Kubernetes cluster.
Funzioni novi è cambiate
- We have introduced the following new feature in APM 3.4.0.
- Support for geographic redundancy—Address Pool Manager can maintain continuous operation across multiple geographically distributed Kubernetes clusters.
- By utilizing a multiple cluster architecture managed by Karmada for orchestration and Submariner for inter-cluster networking, APM can failover if a data center outage si verifica.
Aperte Issues
- Learn about the open issues in Address Pool Manager 3.4.0
- Deleting an entity-match entry does not completely clean up the show apm entity output. PR1874241
- An in-service upgrade of the BBE-observer triggers a rollout. As part of an in-service upgrade of the observer microservice, it may appear as if all APM microservices are being upgraded.
- The list of container images loaded or pushed in the rollout output indicates that all the microservices are being upgraded, but only the observer microservice is upgraded.
- Other container images that are being loaded or pushed are not upgraded. PR1879715
- Reverting network load balancer (MetalLB) annotations, followed by performing a rollout, does not reset the external IP address for the APMi.
Soluzione:
- When the external address of the APMi that is bound to a particular IPAddressPool through the network load balancer annotations needs to be reverted to use an auto-assign IPAddressPool by removing the annotations, a stop command, and then a rollout command of APM must be performed.
