Prerequisites for Configuring PPP
You must be in a user group associated with a task group that includes the proper task IDs. The command reference guides include the task IDs required for each command. If you suspect user group assignment is preventing you from using a command, contact your AAA administrator for assistance.
Before you can configure PPP authentication on a POS or serial interface, be sure that the following tasks and conditions are met:
•
Your hardware must support POS or serial interfaces.
•
You have enabled PPP encapsulation on your interface with the encap ppp command, as described in the appropriate module:
–
To enable PPP encapsulation on a POS interface, see the Configuring POS Interfaces on Cisco IOS XR Softwareon the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Router module in this manual.
–
To enable PPP encapsulation on a serial interface, see the Configuring Serial Interfaces on the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Router module in this manual.
Information About PPP
To configure PPP and related features, you should understand the information in this section:
•
PPP Authentication
•
Multilink PPP
•
ICSSO for PPP and MLPPP
•
Multiclass MLPPP with QoS
•
T3 SONET Channels
PPP Authentication
When PPP authentication is configured on an interface, a host requires that the other host uniquely identify itself with a secure password before establishing a PPP connection. The password is unique and is known to both hosts.
PPP supports the following authentication protocols:
•
Challenge-Handshake Authentication Protocol (CHAP)
•
Microsoft extension to the CHAP protocol (MS-CHAP)
•
Password Authentication Protocol (PAP).
When you first enable PPP on a POS or serial interface, no authentication is enabled on the interface until you configure a CHAP, MS-CHAP, or PAP secret password under that interface. Keep the following information in mind when configuring PPP on an interface:
•
CHAP, MS-CHAP, and PAP can be configured on a single interface; however, only one authentication method is used at any one time. The order in which the authentication protocols are used is determined by the peer during the LCP negotiations. The first authentication method used is the one that is also supported by the peer.
•
PAP is the least secure authentication protocol available on POS and serial interfaces. To ensure higher security for information that is sent over POS and serial interfaces, we recommend configuring CHAP or MS-CHAP authentication in addition to PAP authentication.
•
Enabling or disabling PPP authentication does not effect the local router's willingness to authenticate itself to the remote device.
•
The ppp authentication command is also used to specify the order in which CHAP, MS-CHAP, and PAP authentication is selected on the interface. You can enable CHAP, MS-CHAP, or PAP in any order. If you enable all three methods, the first method specified is requested during link negotiation. If the peer suggests using the second method, or refuses the first method, the second method is tried. Some remote devices support only one method. Base the order in which you specify methods on the remote device's ability to correctly negotiate the appropriate method and on the level of data line security you require. PAP usernames and passwords are sent as clear text strings, which can be intercepted and reused.

Caution 
If you use a
list-name value that was not configured with the
aaa authentication ppp command, your interface cannot authenticate the peer. For details on implementing the
aaa authentication command with the
ppp keyword, see the
Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting Commands on Cisco IOS XR Software module of
Cisco IOS XR System Security Command Reference and
Configuring AAA Services on Cisco IOS XR Software module of the
Cisco IOS XR System Security Configuration Guide.
PAP Authentication
PAP provides a simple method for a remote node to establish its identity using a two-way handshake. After a PPP link is established between two hosts, a username and password pair is repeatedly sent by the remote node across the link (in clear text) until authentication is acknowledged, or until the connection is terminated.
PAP is not a secure authentication protocol. Passwords are sent across the link in clear text and there is no protection from playback or trial-and-error attacks. The remote node is in control of the frequency and timing of the login attempts.
CHAP Authentication
CHAP is defined in RFC 1994, and it verifies the identity of the peer by means of a three-way handshake. The steps that follow provide a general overview of the CHAP process:
Step 1
The CHAP authenticator sends a challenge message to the peer.
Step 2
The peer responds with a value calculated through a one-way hash function.
Step 3
The authenticator checks the response against its own calculation of the expected hash value. If the values match, then the authentication is successful. If the values do not match, then the connection is terminated.
This authentication method depends on a CHAP password known only to the authenticator and the peer. The CHAP password is not sent over the link. Although the authentication is only one-way, you can negotiate CHAP in both directions, with the help of the same CHAP password set for mutual authentication.
Note
For CHAP authentication to be valid, the CHAP password must be identical on both hosts.
MS-CHAP Authentication
Microsoft Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol (MS-CHAP) is the Microsoft version of CHAP and is an extension to RFC 1994. MS-CHAP follows the same authentication process used by CHAP. In this case, however, authentication occurs between a PC using Microsoft Windows NT or Microsoft Windows 95 and a Cisco router or access server acting as a network access server (NAS).
Note
For MS-CHAP authentication to be valid, the MS-CHAP password must be identical on both hosts.
Multilink PPP
Multilink Point-to-Point Protocol (MLPPP) provides a method for combining multiple physical links into one logical link. The implementation combines multiple PPP interfaces into one multilink interface. MLPPP performs the fragmenting, reassembling, and sequencing of datagrams across multiple PPP links.
Link Fragmentation and Interleaving (LFI) is designed for MLPPP interfaces and is required when integrating voice and data on low-speed interfaces.
Link Fragmentation and Interleaving (LFI) provides stability for delay-sensitive traffic, such as voice or video, traveling on the same circuit as data. Voice is susceptible to increased latency and jitter when the network processes large packets on low-speed interfaces. LFI reduces delay and jitter by fragmenting large datagrams and interleaving them with low-delay traffic packets.
Figure 29 Link Fragmentation Interleave
MLPPP Feature Summary
MLPPP in Cisco IOS XR provides the same features that are supported on PPP Serial interfaces, including QoS. It also provides the following additional features:
•
Long sequence numbers (24-bit).
•
Lost fragment detection timeout period of 1 second.
•
Minimum-active-links configuration option.
•
LCP echo request/reply support over multilink interface.
•
Full T1 and E1 framed and unframed links.
•
Support for the Cisco 2-Port Channelized OC-12c/DS0 SPA to set thresholds for noise errors on T1/E1 links that are used to signal the Noise Attribute to PPP for removal of an MLPPP bundle link. For more information about LNM, see the "Configuring Clear Channel T3/E3 Controllers and Channelized T3 Controllers on the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Router" module in the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Router Interface and Hardware Component Configuration Guide.
IPHC Over MLPPP
The 2-Port Channelized OC-12c/DS0 SPA supports IPHC over PPP, MLPPP, and MLPPP/LFI. For more information about IPHC and how to configure it, see the "Configuring Serial Interfaces on the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Router" module in the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Router Interface and Hardware Component Configuration Guide.
ICSSO for PPP and MLPPP
Note
SR- and MR-APS is not supported on the Cisco 1-Port Channelized OC-48/STM-16 SPA.
Inter-Chassis Stateful Switchover (ICSSO) on the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Router provides features that maintain Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) and Multilink PPP (MLPPP) sessions during a Multi-Router Automatic Protection Switching (MR-APS) switchover from the MR-APS Working router to the MR-APS Protect router.
ICSSO allows an MR-APS switchover to occur without the need for Link Control Protocol (LCP) or IP Control Protocol (IPCP) renegotiation between the new MR-APS active router and the remote PPP/MLPPP peer devices. The primary purpose of ICSSO is to minimize subscriber session and data loss during an MR-APS switchover.
ICSSO synchronizes the PPP and MLPPP state information on the active router with the state information on the backup router, and ensures that the backup router is ready to forward traffic immediately after an MR-APS switchover.
ICSSO works in conjunction with the following other software components:
•
Multi-Router Automatic Protection Switching (MR-APS)
•
Session State Redundancy Protocol (SSRP)
•
Redundancy Group Manager (RG-MGR)
•
IP Fast Reroute (IP-FRR)
•
VPN Routing And Forwarding (VRF)
•
Open Shortest Path First (OSPF)
Multi-Router Automatic Protection Switching (MR-APS)
Multi-Router Automatic Protection Switching (MR-APS) is a Cisco feature that provides Layer 1 protection against facility and equipment failures through the configuration of a protection pair of SONET controllers located on two different routers. The redundant backup router is configured identically to the active router and is ready to forward traffic immediately upon an MR-APS switchover.
The protection pair communicates using Layer 1 (k1/k2) signalling bytes from the SONET downstream connection (as per Bellcore specification GR-253-CORE) and Layer 3 signaling messages using Protect Group Protocol (PGP). MR-APS detects many of the sources of failures that indirectly trigger an IP-FRR update to use backup routes.
In an MR-APS configuration, two interfaces, on different routers, are assigned the roles of Working interface or Protect interface. These roles are configured by the operator. Under normal conditions, the Working interface carries active traffic. If the Working interface fails, the Protect interface takes over the active traffic immediately with no loss of PPP traffic.
Session State Redundancy Protocol (SSRP)
A pair of SONET controllers configured for MR-APS are part of a Session State Redundancy Protocol (SSRP) protection group. SSRP communicates interface and system state information between the Active and Standby routers. SSRP also serves as the keepalive protocol.
SSRP configuration associates a SONET controller with an inter-chassis redundancy group and enables MR-APS peer routers to synchronize PPP session states on each Active SONET controller.
PPP sessions can have one of three states:
•
Active-A PPP session is in the Active state when the PPP session negotiation is complete, the associated route is installed, and the associated adjacency is created. PPP sessions in the Active state replicate data to their peers on the Standby router.
•
Standby Up-A PPP session on the Standby router is in the Standby Up state when replicated state information is received from the Active router, the associated PPP route is installed, and the associated adjacency is created. PPP sessions in the Standby Up state are ready to forward traffic immediately after an MR-APS switchover.
•
Standby Down-A PPP session on the Standby router is in the Standby Down state when the associated route is not installed and the adjacency is not created.
SSRP runs between the MR-APS peer routers and uses TCP/IP. One SSRP session runs on each pair of redundant SONET controllers, meaning multiple SSRP sessions can be running on a pair of MR-APS-redundant routers.
Note
SSRP is not a redundancy control protocol, but is a state information synchronization protocol.
Redundancy Group Manager (RG-MGR)
The Redundancy Group Manager (RG-MGR) configures the backup routes for the protected interface. The RG-MGR registers events on protected SONET controllers and provides the Routing Information Base (RIB) component with IP Fast Reroute (IP-FRR) updates.
IP Fast Reroute (IP-FRR)
Note
IP-FRR, when used with IC-SSO, is only supported with PPP encapsulation. It is not supported with HDLC encapsulation.
IP Fast Reroute (IP-FRR) provides extremely fast rerouting of PPP/MLPPP traffic after an MR-APS switchover.
IP-FRR controls the primary and backup routes. Each route is mapped in the Routing Information Base (RIB), and IP-FRR controls which backup path is used to forward traffic after an MR-APS switchover.
An MR-APS switchover triggers an IP-FRR update, which activates the backup routes on the protection SONET controller. When the working SONET controller is restored, another IP-FRR update is triggered, and traffic is rerouted to the primary route.
For more information about IP-FRR, refer to the "Implementing MPLS Traffic Engineering on Cisco IOS XR Software" module in the Cisco IOS XR MPLS Configuration Guide.
VPN Routing And Forwarding (VRF)
ICSSO can be used with VPN routing and forwarding (VRF). Customers who wish to isolate traffic streams with different service types can do so using VRF technology. VRF allows the user to create and maintain separate routing and forwarding databases. See VRF on Multilink Configuration for Use with ICSSO: Example and VRF on Ethernet Configuration for Use with ICSSO: Example. For more information on configuring VRF, refer to the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Router Routing Configuration Guide.
Open Shortest Path First (OSPF)
Aggregation routers that terminate PPP sessions to a set of remote peers, must advertise their availability on the network using Open Shortest Path First (OSPF). OSPF is required to advertise the availability of remote PPP peers to the ICSSO peer router. See OSPF Configuration for Use with ICSSO: Example. For more information on configuring OSPF, refer to the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Router Routing Configuration Guide.
ICSSO Configuration Overview
ICSSO is configured as follows:
•
Configure MR-APS
•
Configure SSRP profile
•
Configure SSRP groups
•
Configure serial interfaces with PPP encapsulation
•
Configure multilink interfaces
•
Verify ICSSO configuration
The "Configuring ICSSO for PPP and MLPPP" section of this module provides step procedures for configuring ICSSO.
The "ICSSO for PPP and MLPPP Configuration: Examples" section gives specific examples for configuring ICSSO and related components.
Multiclass MLPPP with QoS
Multiclass Multilink Point-to-Point Protocol (MLPPP) can be utilized with Quality of Service (QoS) and configured using the encap-sequence command under a class in a policy map.
The encap-sequence command specifies the MLPPP MCMP class ID for the packets in an MQC defined class.
The valid values for the encap-sequence ID number are none, 0, 1, 2, or 3. The none value is applicable only when the priority level is 1 and indicates that there is no MLPPP encapsulation. The values 1, 2, or 3 can be used with priority 1 or 2 classes or other classes with queuing actions. An encap-sequence ID number of zero (0) is reserved for the default class and cannot be specified in any other classes.
Note
The encap-sequence ID numbers must be configured in numeric order. For example, you cannot assign an ID number of 3 unless you have already assigned 1 and 2.
The number of encap-sequence ID numbers must be less than the number of MLPPP classes that are negotiated between the peers via the Multilink header. The user must ensure that the configuration is consistent as the system does not verify this.
The ppp multilink multiclass remote apply command provides a way to ensure this. You can ensure that the number of classes using an encap-sequence ID number (including the default of 0) is less than the min-number value in the ppp multilink multiclass remote apply command. For example, if the min-number value in the ppp multilink multiclass remote apply command is 4, you can only have 3 or less classes with encap-sequence ID numbers
The QoS policy validates the following conditions. If these conditions are not met, the policy is rejected:
•
The encap-sequence ID number is within the allowed values of 1 to 3.
•
When encap-sequence is configured for any class in a policy map, all classes in that policy map with priority level 1 must also contain an encap-sequence ID number.
•
The encap-sequence none configuration is restricted to classes with priority level 1.
•
The class-default does not contain an encap-sequence configuration.
•
Only classes containing a queuing action have the encap-sequence configuration.
Note
Classes that share the same encap-sequence ID number must have the same priority.
A QoS policy map is configured as follows:
policy-map type qos policy-name
The following example shows how to configure a policy map for MLPPP:
For complete information on configuring QoS and QoS commands, refer to the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Routers Modular Quality of Service Configuration Guide and the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Routers Modular Quality of Service Command Reference.
T3 SONET Channels
The Cisco ASR 9000 Series Router supports T3 channelized SONET on the following hardware:
•
SIP 700 SPA Interface Processor
•
1-Port Channelized OC-3/STM-1 SPA
•
2-Port Channelized OC-12c/DS0 SPA
•
1-Port Channelized OC-48/STM-16 SPA
•
Channelized SONET provides the ability to transport multiple T3 channels over the same physical link.

This section includes the following procedures:
•
Modifying the Default PPP Configuration
•
Configuring PPP Authentication
•
Disabling an Authentication Protocol
•
Configuring Multilink PPP
•
Configuring ICSSO for PPP and MLPPP
Modifying the Default PPP Configuration
When you first enable PPP on an interface, the following default configuration applies:
•
The interface resets itself immediately after an authentication failure.
•
The maximum number of configuration requests without response permitted before all requests are stopped is 10.
•
The maximum number of consecutive Configure Negative Acknowledgments (CONFNAKs) permitted before terminating a negotiation is 5.
•
The maximum number of terminate requests (TermReqs) without response permitted before the Link Control Protocol (LCP) or Network Control Protocol (NCP) is closed is 2.
•
Maximum time to wait for a response to an authentication packet is 10 seconds.
•
Maximum time to wait for a response during PPP negotiation is 3 seconds.
This task explains how to modify the basic PPP configuration on serial and POS interfaces that have PPP encapsulation enabled. The commands in this task apply to all authentication types supported by PPP (CHAP, MS-CHAP, and PAP).

Command or Action
|
Purpose
|
Step 1
|
configure
Example:
RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:router# configure
|
Enters global configuration mode.
|
Step 2
|
interface type interface-path-id
Example:
RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:router(config)# interface serial
0/4/0/1
|
Enters interface configuration mode.
|
Step 3
|
Example:
RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:router(config-if)# ppp
max-bad-auth 3
|
(Optional) Configures the number of authentication retries allowed on an interface after a PPP authentication failure.
• If you do not specify the number of authentication retries allowed, the router resets itself immediately after an authentication failure.
• Replace the retries argument with number of retries after which the interface is to reset itself, in the range from 0 through 10.
• The default is 0 retries.
• The ppp max-bad-auth command applies to any interface on which PPP encapsulation is enabled.
|
Step 4
|
ppp max-configure retries
Example:
RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:router(config-if)# ppp
max-configure 4
|
(Optional) Specifies the maximum number of configure requests to attempt (without response) before the requests are stopped.
• Replace the retries argument with the maximum number of configure requests retries, in the range from 4 through 20.
• The default maximum number of configure requests is 10.
• If a configure request message receives a reply before the maximum number of configure requests are sent, further configure requests are abandoned.
|
Step 5
|
Example:
RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:router(config-if)# ppp
max-failure 3
|
(Optional) Configures the maximum number of consecutive Configure Negative Acknowledgments (CONFNAKs) permitted before a negotiation is terminated.
• Replace the retries argument with the maximum number of CONFNAKs to permit before terminating a negotiation, in the range from 2 through 10.
• The default maximum number of CONFNAKs is 5.
|
Step 6
|
Example:
RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:router(config-if)# ppp
max-terminate 5
|
(Optional) Configures the maximum number of terminate requests (TermReqs) to send without reply before the Link Control Protocol (LCP) or Network Control Protocol (NCP) is closed.
• Replace the number argument with the maximum number of TermReqs to send without reply before closing down the LCP or NCP. Range is from 2 to 10.
• The default maximum number of TermReqs is 2.
|
Step 7
|
ppp timeout authentication seconds
Example:
RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:router(config-if)# ppp timeout
authentication 20
|
(Optional) Sets PPP authentication timeout parameters.
• Replace the seconds argument with the maximum time, in seconds, to wait for a response to an authentication packet. Range is from 3 to 30 seconds.
• The default authentication time is 10 seconds, which should allow time for a remote router to authenticate and authorize the connection and provide a response. However, it is also possible that it will take much less time than 10 seconds. In such cases, use the ppp timeout authentication command to lower the timeout period to improve connection times in the event that an authentication response is lost.
|
Step 8
|
ppp timeout retry seconds
Example:
RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:router(config-if)# ppp timeout
retry 8
|
(Optional) Sets PPP timeout retry parameters.
• Replace the seconds argument with the maximum time, in seconds, to wait for a response during PPP negotiation. Range is from 1 to 10 seconds.
• The default is 3 seconds.
|
Step 9
|
end
or
commit
Example:
RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:router(config-if)# end
or
RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:router(config-if)# commit
|
Saves configuration changes.
• When you issue the end command, the system prompts you to commit changes:
Uncommitted changes found, commit them before
– Entering yes saves configuration changes to the running configuration file, exits the configuration session, and returns the router to EXEC mode.
– Entering no exits the configuration session and returns the router to EXEC mode without committing the configuration changes.
– Entering cancel leaves the router in the current configuration session without exiting or committing the configuration changes.
• Use the commit command to save the configuration changes to the running configuration file and remain within the configuration session.

Where To Go Next
Configure a PAP, CHAP, or MS-CHAP authentication password, as described in the appropriate section:
•
If you enabled PAP on an interface, configure a PAP authentication username and password, as described in the "Configuring a PAP Authentication Password" section.
•
If you enabled CHAP on an interface, configure a CHAP authentication password, as described in the "Configuring a CHAP Authentication Password" section
•
If you enabled MS-CHAP on an interface, configure an MS-CHAP authentication password, as described in the "Configuring an MS-CHAP Authentication Password" section
Configuring a PAP Authentication Password
This task explains how to enable and configure PAP authentication on a serial or POS interface.
Note
PAP is the least secure authentication protocol available on POS and interfaces. To ensure higher security for information that is sent over POS and interfaces, we recommend configuring CHAP or MS-CHAP authentication in addition to PAP authentication.
Prerequisites
You must enable PAP authentication on the interface with the ppp authentication command, as described in the "Enabling PAP, CHAP, and MS-CHAP Authentication" section.

Configuring Multilink PPP
This section contains the following procedures:
•
Prerequisites
•
Restrictions
•
Configuring the Controller
•
Configuring the Interfaces
•
Configuring MLPPP Optional Features
•
Removing an MLPPP member
Prerequisites
MLPPP and LFI are supported on the 1-Port Channelized OC-3/STM-1 SPA and 2-Port Channelized OC-12/DS0 SPA.
Restrictions
MLPPP for Cisco IOS XR software has the following restrictions:
•
Only full rate T1s are supported.
•
All links in a bundle must belong to the same SPA.
•
All links in a bundle must operate at the same speed.
•
A maximum of 10 links per bundle is supported.
•
A maximum of 700 bundles per line card is supported.
•
A maximum of 2600 bundles per system is supported.
•
MLPPP interfaces are not supported with DS0 link members.
•
MLPPP interfaces are not be supported with T3 channels as members. Therefore, LFI is also unsupported on T3 channels.
•
All serial links in an MLPPP bundle inherit the value of the mtu command from the multilink interface. Therefore, you should not configure the mtu command on a serial interface before configuring it as a member of an MLPPP bundle. The Cisco IOS XR software blocks the following:
–
Attempts to configure a serial interface as a member of an MLPPP bundle if the interface is configured with a nondefault MTU value.
–
Attempts to change the mtu command value for a serial interface that is configured as a member of an MLPPP bundle.
In Cisco IOS XR software, multilink processing is controlled by a hardware module called the Multilink Controller, which consists of an ASIC, network processor, and CPU working in conjunction. The MgmtMultilink Controller makes the multilink interfaces behave like the serial interfaces of channelized SPAs.
