NAS-Port-ID Format C Enhancement

First Published: December 5, 2006
Last Updated: October 2, 2009

The NAS-Port-ID Format C Enhancement feature introduces the nas-port-id format c command for Broadband Access Group (BBA group) configuration. This command defines a specific broadband subscriber access line identification (NAS-Port-ID) coding format. When this command is configured, the original value of the NAS-Port-ID tag is overwritten. If no valid string is available for the Remote-ID or the Circuit-ID tag as part of Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) option 82, a default string of 0/0/0/0/0/0 is appended to the NAS-Port-ID tag.

Prerequisites for NAS-Port-ID Format C Enhancement

The NAS-Port-ID tag is created.

Restrictions for NAS-Port-ID Format C Enhancement

The NAS-Port-ID Format C Enhancement feature is supported on the Cisco 10000 series platform where PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE) server functionality is supported.

This feature is not supported on PPP over ATM.

Information About NAS-Port-ID Format C Enhancement

To configure and apply this feature, you should understand the following concept:

•Coding Format for NAS-Port-ID Format C

Coding Format for NAS-Port-ID Format C

The NAS-Port-ID Format C Enhancement feature provides the following broadband subscriber access line identification (NAS-Port-ID) coding format:

{atm/eth/trunk} NAS_slot/NAS_subslot/NAS_port:XPI:XCI {Circuit-ID/Remote-ID/default string}

•For ATM, XPI is the virtual path identifier (VPI) and XCI is the virtual circuit identifier (VCI).

•For Ethernet, XPI is outer vlan-tag, XCI is inner vlan-tag.

•Requirements for XPI:XCI for Ethernet are as follows:

–For 802.1Q tunneling (QinQ), the format should be outer vlan-tag:inner vlan-tag. (Prior to Release 12.2(31)SB2, Cisco IOS software supports inner vlan-tag:outer vlan-tag).

–For single tag VLAN, XPI should be 4096.

•The Circuit-ID tag (if present) must be appended to this string when the nas-port-id format c command is used. The format for the Circuit-ID or Remote-ID tag is as follows:

AccessNodeIdentifier/ANI_rack/ANI_frame/ANI_slot/ANI_subslot/ANI_port[:ANI_XPI.ANI_XCI]

•The digital subscriber line access multiplexer (DSLAM) should append this information to the broadband remote access server (BRAS), and the BRAS transparently delivers it. If the Circuit-ID or Remote-ID tag is not present in DHCP option 82, a string of 0/0/0/0/0/0 should be appended to the NAS-Port-ID tag.

The following examples illustrate this format:

•NAS-Port-ID = atm 31/31/7:255.65535 name001/0/31/63/31/127

In this example, the subscriber interface type of the BRAS equipment is an ATM interface, the BRAS slot number is 31, the BRAS subslot number is 31, the BRAS port number is 7, the VPI is 255, and the VCI is 65535. The string name001/0/31/63/31/127 is the Circuit-ID or Remote-ID tag.

•NAS-Port-ID = eth 31/31/7:1234.2345 0/0/0/0/0/0

In this example, the subscriber interface type of the BRAS equipment is an Ethernet interface, the BRAS slot number is 31, the BRAS subslot number is 31, the BRAS port number is 7, the outer vlan-tag is 1234, and the inner vlan-tag is 2345. The string 0/0/0/0/0/0 is the default.

•NAS-Port-ID = eth 31/31/7:4096.2345 0/0/0/0/0/0

In this example, the subscriber interface type of the BRAS equipment is an Ethernet interface, the BRAS slot number is 31, the BRAS subslot number is 31, the BRAS port number is 7, and the VLAN ID is 2345. The string 0/0/0/0/0/0 is the default.

How to Configure the NAS-Port-ID Format C Enhancement Feature

This section contains the following procedure:

•Configuring the NAS-Port-ID Format C Enhancement Feature

Configuring the NAS-Port-ID Format C Enhancement Feature

To overwrite the original value of the NAS-Port-ID tag and define the specific broadband subscriber access line identification (NAS-Port-ID) coding format that complies with that described in the "Coding Format for NAS-Port-ID Format C" section, perform the following task.

SUMMARY STEPS

1. enable

2. configure terminal

3. bba-group pppoe group-name

4. virtual-template template-number

5. nas-port-id format c

6. end

DETAILED STEPS

 
Command or Action
Purpose

Step 1 

enable

Example:

Router> enable

Enables privileged EXEC mode.

•Enter your password if prompted.

Step 2 

configure terminal

Example:

Router# configure terminal

Enters global configuration mode.

Step 3 

bba-group pppoe group-name

Example:

Router(config)# bba-group pppoe pppoe-group

Enters BBA group configuration mode and defines a PPPoE profile.

Step 4 

virtual-template template-number

Example:

Router(config-bba-group)# virtual-template 1

Configures a PPPoE profile with a virtual template to be used for cloning virtual access interfaces.

•The template-number argument is an identifying number of the virtual template that will be used to clone virtual access interfaces.

Step 5 

nas-port-id format c

Example:

Router(config-bba-group)# nas-port-id format c

Specifies a format for broadband subscriber access line identification coding.

Note The designation of format c is specifically designed as follows:

NAS_PORT_ID=atm 31/31/7:255.65535 name001/0/31/63/31/127

Step 6 

end

Example:

Router(config-bba-group)# end


Exits the current configuration mode and returns to privileged EXEC mode.

Configuration Examples for NAS-Port-ID Format C Enhancement
