Configuring a S-VLAN Subinterface

Tasks to configure a S-VLAN subinterface include:

• Configuring an S-VLAN Subinterface
• Configuring PPPoE over an S-VLAN

Configuring an S-VLAN Subinterface

To configure an S-VLAN subinterface:

1. Specify a Fast Ethernet, Gigabit Ethernet, or 10-Gigabit Ethernet port.

host1(config)#interface fastEthernet 4/0

2. Specify VLAN as the encapsulation method.

host1(config-if)#encapsulation vlan

The VLAN major interface is added.

3. Create a VLAN subinterface by adding a subinterface number to the interface identification command.

host1(config-if)#interface fastEthernet 4/1.1

4. Assign an S-VLAN ID and a VLAN ID for the subinterface.

host1(config-if)#svlan id 4 255

5. Assign an S-VLAN Ethertype.

host1(config-if)#svlan ethertype 88a8 

Configuring PPPoE over an S-VLAN

To configure PPPoE over an S-VLAN over an Ethernet interface:

1. Specify a Fast Ethernet, Gigabit Ethernet, or 10-Gigabit Ethernet port.

host1(config)#interface fastEthernet 4/0

2. Specify VLAN as the encapsulation method.

host1(config-if)#encapsulation vlan

The VLAN major interface is added.

3. Create a VLAN subinterface by adding a subinterface number to the interface identification command.

host1(config-if)#interface fastEthernet 4/1.1

4. Assign an S-VLAN ID and a VLAN ID for the subinterface.

host1(config-if)#svlan id 4 255

5. Assign an S-VLAN Ethertype.

host1(config-if)#svlan ethertype 88a8 

6. Specify PPPoE as the encapsulation method on the interface.

host1(config-if)#pppoe

7. Create a PPPoE subinterface.

host1(config-if)#pppoe subinterface fastEthernet 4/1.1.1

8. Specify PPP as the encapsulation method on the interface.

host1(config-if)#encapsulation ppp

9. Assign an IP address and mask.

host1(config-if)#ip address 164.10.6.61 255.255.255.0

10. (Optional) Configure additional PPPoE subinterfaces by completing Steps 7 through 9 using unique numbering.

Figure 18 shows one S-VLAN subinterface with multiple PPPoE subinterface stacks.

NOTE: Before you can remove an S-VLAN/VLAN subinterface, you must remove the upper-layer interface stack.

Figure 18: Example of PPPoE over S-VLAN Stacking Configuration Steps

encapsulation ppp

• Use to configure PPP as the encapsulation method for the interface.
• Use the no version to remove PPP as the encapsulation method on the interface.

encapsulation vlan

• Use to configure VLAN as the encapsulation method for the interface.
• Use the no version to remove VLAN as the encapsulation method on the interface.

ip address

• Use to set a primary or secondary IP address for an interface or subinterface.
• Specify the layer 2 encapsulation before you set the IP address.
• Use the no version to remove an IP address or disable IP processing.

pppoe

• Use to configure PPPoE as the encapsulation method on the interface.
• Use the no version to disable PPPoE on the interface.

pppoe subinterface fastEthernet

• Use to create a PPPoE subinterface on a Fast Ethernet interface.
• Use the no version to remove a PPPoE subinterface on a Fast Ethernet interface.

pppoe subinterface gigabitEthernet

    pppoe subinterface tenGigabitEthernet

• Use to create a PPPoE subinterface on a Gigabit Ethernet interface or on a 10-Gigabit Ethernet interface.
• Use the no version to remove a PPPoE subinterface on a Gigabit Ethernet interface or on a 10-Gigabit Ethernet interface.

svlan ethertype

• Use to assign an Ethertype value for the S-VLAN subinterface.
• Choose one of the following Ethertype values:

• 8100—Specifies Ethertype value 0x8100, as defined in IEEE Standard 802.1q
• 88a8—Specifies Ethertype value 0x88a8, as defined in draft IEEE Standard 802.1ad
• 9100—Specifies Ethertype value 0x9100, which is the default

• Use an Ethertype value that matches the Ethertype value set on the customer premises equipment (CPE) to which your router connects.
• Example

host1(config-if)#svlan ethertype 8100

• Use the no version to restore the default value, 9100.

svlan id

• Use to assign S-VLAN IDs and VLAN IDs to VLAN subinterfaces.
• Use S-VLAN ID and VLAN ID numbers that are in the range 0–4095 and that are unique within the Ethernet interface.
• Use the mac-address keyword to specify a unique MAC address for the VLAN subinterface. When you do not specify a unique MAC address, the VLAN uses the MAC address of the Ethernet interface.
• Examples

host1(config-if)#svlan id 4 255

host1(config-if)#svlan id 4 255 mac-address 0090.1a01.1234

• Issue the svlan id command before any upper bindings are made, such as IP or PPPoE.
• There is no no version.
