Cisco 867 half-bridged mode

Tim Roelands
Level 1
Level 1

Hi!

I'm a Cisco newbie and I'm in the following situation:

1>The router (867) must connect to my ISP in 1483 bridged (2684 bridged) mode, LLC, VPI/VCI 0/35

2>WAN IP will be assigned by ISP (DHCP)

3>No username and password required to establish the connection

4>MAC-Cloning is advised, not required

5>Firewall behind 867, WAN IP should be assigned to WAN interface firewall, connection established by 867

6>867 router will be used as a switch, so no NAT required. NAT will be setup on the firewall

7>Connection type: Analog (annex A)

The required setup can be fixed by configuring the 867 in half-bridged mode, but I don't no how and I don't know exactly how to config the 867 in bridged mode.

First, it's even hard to setup a good bridged config. Maybe something like this?:

aal5snap is the default, so doesn't matter.

Look at the commands indicated above.

Using a cisco router in that situation is wasted money. Use whatever modem the ISP gives for free, connect firewall ethernet to it.

Well, I agree, but the router was already presented. Must be possible to set it up I guess?

I already found out how to set it up in half bridge mode, but I guess I made a mistake in the config setup?

VPI VCI = 0 / 35

2684 bridged mode mode (formerly known as 1483 bridged)

Multiplexing: LLC

WAN Automatic assigned by ISP

NAT Disabled

IP handling by Firewall behind the Cisco router.

What is wrong with the config below, because it doesn't work, DHCP client on Firewall does not get WAN IP assigned. Please Help!

Try:

interface ATM0
  no bridge-group 1
  no pvc 0/35
interface ATM0.35 point-to-point
  bridge-group 1
  pvc 0/35

If still troubles look at "show dsl interface", "show atm pvc 0/35".

Thanks Paolo,

Last question. Where should I put: encapsulation aal5snap ? Below ATM0, or below ATM0.35? Or should it not be used?

Thanks m8! It worked!

Thank you for the nice rating and good luck!

Last question. Is it necessary to set some 'keeping alive' settings. Looks like connection is lost after long idle time. Thanks!

Sorry, ISP seems to have some stability problems. Working again!
