Hi
I have got a ASA 5510 running 7.2.1.
The outside interface recieves the IP address over pppoe. Normaly you don't need to configure a fix IP with pppoe, but for any reason I don't recieve an IP address until I hardcode it on the ASA. Then when I reboot the ASA the IP address of the outside interface is lost.Further, I'm not able to change the subnetmask, it changes always to a host subnetmask. Has someone already made the same experience? See below the configuration of the outside interface and the pppoe statements.
interface Ethernet0/0
nameif outside
security-level 0
pppoe client vpdn group any
ip address XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX 255.255.255.255 pppoe setroute
vpdn group any request dialout pppoe
vpdn group any localname username@switzerland.net
vpdn group any ppp authentication chap
vpdn username username@switzerland.net password ***** store-local
Best regards

Did you configure the ip address to request an IP from DHCP?
ip address dhcp ppoe setroute
Thanks,
Chad
Please reate if this helps!

Hi Chad,

Hi Chad,
Sorry to ask the obvious, but have you done some debugging of pppoe?
Specifically "Monitoring and Debugging the PPPoE Client".
Could you please do 'debug pppoe event' and 'debug pppoe error' and paste them in here?
Thanks,
Glen

Hi Glen
I figured out now the bug. When I enter the IP address at the outside interface with for example a /30 subnetmask, it takes this command, but for any reason it changes the mask to /32 when you have a look in the running config a few seconds after you entered the command.
See this below:
ciscoasa(config-if)# ip address 213.200.233.189 255.255.255.252 pppoe setroutPPPoE is already enabled on outside interface - now clearing
ciscoasa(config-if)# sh int e0/0

Then when you reboot you get the following message:
ERROR: Bad mask 255.255.255.255 for address 213.200.233.189
*** Output from config line 16, " ip address 213.200.233...."
and for this message there is no IP anymore on the outside interface.
