Configuring PPPoE Interfaces

You create a PPPoE interface with a logical interface unit 0, then specify a logical Ethernet or ATM interface as the underlying interface for the PPPoE session. You then specify other PPPoE options, including the access concentrator and PPPoE session parameters.

In this example, you create the PPPoE interface pp0.0 and specify the logical Ethernet interface ge-0/0/1.0 as the underlying interface. You also set the access concentrator and PPPoE session parameters.

To clear a PPPoE session on the pp0.0 interface, use the clear pppoe sessions pp0.0 command. To clear all sessions on the interface, use the clear pppoe sessions command.

You can use either J-Web or the CLI configuration editor to create and configure the PPPoE interface.

  4. In the Interface name box, type pp0.
  5. Click OK.
  6. Under Interface name, click pp0.
  7. Next to Unit, click Add new entry.
  8. In the Interface unit number box, type 0.

To configure PPPoE options:

  1. In the Underlying interface box, type ge-0/0/1.0.
  2. In the Access concentrator box, type ispl.com.
  3. In the Auto reconnect box, type 100.
  4. In the Idle timeout box, type 100.
  5. Next to Chap, click Configure.
  6. In the Client box, type Yes.
  7. In the Service name box, type video@ispl.com.

To configure the maximum transmission unit (MTU) of the IPv4 family:

  1. In the Inet box, select Yes and then click Configure.
  2. In the Mtu box, type 1492.
  3. Click OK until you return to the Unit page.

To configure the PPPoE interface address:

  1. Next to Inet, click Edit.
  2. Next to Negotiate address, select Yes.
  3. Click OK until you return to the Unit page.

CLI Configuration

To create a PPPoE interface and configure PPPoE options:

user@host# set interfaces pp0 unit 0 pppoe-options underlying-interface ge-0/0/1.0 access-concentrator ispl.com auto-reconnect 100 idle-timeout 100 client service-name video@ispl.com

To configure the maximum transmission unit (MTU) of the IPv4 family:

user@host# set interfaces pp0 unit 0 family inet mtu 1492

To configure the PPPoE interface address:

user@host# set interfaces pp0 unit 0 family inet negotiate-address
