Introduction

This document provides a sample configuration that shows how to support a Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet (PPPoE) client when it is connected to the Ethernet interface of a Cisco 675 DSL Customer Premises Equipment (CPE).

The Cisco 675 is configured with RFC1483 bridging and terminates on a Cisco 6400 Universal Access Concentrator (UAC) that has been configured to support PPPoE using a multipoint asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) subinterface.

The PPPoE feature allows you to initiate a PPP session on a simple bridging Ethernet connected client. The session is transported over the ATM link via encapsulated Ethernet-bridged frames. The session can terminate at either a local exchange carrier central office or an Internet service provider (ISP) point of presence.

PPPoE is a client-initiated connection. On the CPE side, a PC with an Ethernet network interface card (NIC) and the PPPoE client code are established. This PC and other PCs are connected to the Cisco 675 Ethernet segment.

The Cisco 675 WAN interface (labeled "WALL" on the back of the Cisco 675 CPE) is connected to the DSL service (DSL line). In this example, the DSL line then connects to the Cisco 6130 Digital Subscriber Line Access Multiplexer (DSLAM) and terminates on a Cisco 6400 UAC.

Prerequisites

Requirements

There are no specific requirements for this document.

Components Used

The information in this document is based on these software and hardware versions:

  • Cisco 675 CBOS Version 2.3.5

  • Cisco 6400 UAC-NRP IOSĀ® Software Release 12.0(7)DC

  • Cisco 6400 UAC-NSP IOS Software Release 12.0(4)DB

  • Cisco 6130 DSLAM-NI2 IOS Software Release 12.1(1)DA

The information in this document was created from the devices in a specific lab environment. All of the devices used in this document started with a cleared (default) configuration. If your network is live, make sure that you understand the potential impact of any command.

Conventions

Refer to Cisco Technical Tips Conventions for more information on document conventions.

Configure

In this section, you are presented with the information to configure the features described in this document.

Note: Use the Command Lookup Tool ( registered customers only) to obtain more information on the commands used in this section.

Network Diagram

Configurations

Note: In the Cisco 6400 NRP configuration, you set the maximum transmission unit (MTU). Refer to Troubleshooting MTU Size in PPPoE Dialin Connectivity for more information on how to change the MTU size.

PC Configuration

Set IP addressing to automatically obtain an IP address.

Set WINS to use DHCP for WINS resolution.

Ensure that no default gateway is set.

It might be necessary to set a domain name because DHCP cannot pass this information.

Make sure you have PPPoE client software installed in your PC (that is, WinPoET).
