Configuring dynamic local peer IP on a PPPoE interface

Last Updated : Nov 06, 2012 |
Prolog information
  1. Enter the context of the FastEthernet interface.
    For example:
    Gxxx-001(config)# interface fastethernet 10/3
    Gxxx-001(config-if:FastEthernet 10/3)#
  2. Enter the following commands in the context of the interface: no ip address, encapsulation pppoe, and ip address negotiated.
    Gxxx-001(config-if:FastEthernet 10/3)# no ip address
    Done!
    Gxxx-001(config-if:FastEthernet 10/3)# encapsulation pppoe
    Done!
    Gxxx-001(config-if:FastEthernet 10/3)# ip address negotiated
    Done!
  3. Exit the context of the interface, and set the interface name as the next hop.
    For example:
    Gxxx-001(config-if:FastEthernet 10/3)# exit
    Gxxx-001(config)# ip default-gateway FastEthernet 10/3
    Done!
    ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
    Note:
    PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE) is a client-server protocol used for carrying PPP-encapsulated data over Ethernet frames. You can configure PPPoE on the Branch Gateway’s ETH WAN Fast Ethernet port. For more information about PPPoE on the Branch Gateway, see Configuring PPPoE.
