Terminate multiple PPPoE on single IOS Router

[robertblasey]

Hello Everybody,

I am looking for a high-quality option to terminate 3 or 4 sDSL/aDSL PPPoE sessions on a single IOS device. Can I use the HWIC-4ESW in a 2801 for this idea? My experience with VLAN interfaces in routers are somewhat limited ...

Thanks for reading

robert

Another question: Is the WIC-1ENET module running in the current 1800 or 2800 models?

You can use the forwarding feature for this. For example, users coming in with username@lnsdomain.com would be forwarded across the tunnel with the following configuration:

vpdn enable

!

vpdn-group l2tp

request-dialin

protocol l2tp

domain company.com <- forward all users that includes "@company.com" across this tunnel.

initiate-to ip x.x.x.x

l2tp tunnel password 7 061118

!

vpdn-group pppoe

accept-dialin

protocol pppoe

virtual-template 1 <--incoming pppoe clients will clone from vtemp1.

!

!

interface Virtual-Template1

mtu 1492

ip unnumbered FastEthernet5/0.1

peer default ip address pool pppoe

ppp authentication pap chap <--I MUST specify incoming authentication

method to identify users for transport over L2tp tunnel.

!

Hi Robert,

The HWIC-ESW is know to NOT work with mutiple PPPoE connections to different port. For that, you will need to add 1 or 2 ports FE cards dedicated to each connection.

The WIC-1ENET is not supported on anything but the 1700.

Hope this helps, please rate post if it does!

Thanks - its sometimes really hard to find the real facts between all the sales mumble on a website :-) - if you dont have a 4ESW laying arround - the feature-navigator is not always helping ..

Tanks a bunch -
