3.2.2.7 Lab - Configuring A Router As A PPPoE Client For DSL Connectivity STEPS

1. The document discusses configuring a PPPoE connection between an ISP router and a customer router (Cust1) for broadband access. This involves setting up virtual templates, pools, and interfaces on the ISP router and interfaces on the Cust1 router along with authentication using CHAP. 2. Debugging is enabled to monitor PPPoE and PPP authentication events. Once interfaces are enabled, the show pppoe session command can confirm the PPPoE connection and ping tests connectivity. 3.

Cabling the topology:

1 straight-through cable connecting switch to switch

2 crossover cables between the switches and routers

The basic settings:

Disable DNS lookup "no ip domain-lookup"

Set hostnames "hostname (name)"

encrypt passwords "service password-encryption"

Create a MOTD banner saying "unauthorized access is prohibited" "banner motd # Unauthorized Access
is Prohibited!#"

create passwords for EXEC mode, console, and vty. Then enable login.

set logging synchronous "line con 0" "logging synchronous"

save config "copy running-config startup-config"

I have my routers preconfigured and saved with these settings (minus the passwords) so I typically skip
this part. I do set the hostnames to avoid confusion.

Configuring the ISP router

In global config mode enter the command " username Cust1 password ciscopppoe". This creates a
database entry for Cust1 with a password of ciscopppoe. This will allow the Cust1 router to connect with
the ISP router using that password later.

The ISP needs a pool of addresses to hand out to it's DSL customers. Using the command "ip local pool
PPPoEPOOL 10.0.0.1 10.0.0.10" creates a range of addresses from 10.0.0.1 to 10.0.0.2 to hand out over
PPPoE.

Next we are going to make a Virtual template and connect the F0/1 interface with it. This is done with
these commands:

interface virtual-template 1

Creates the Virtual template

ip address 10.0.0.254 255.255.255.0


Assigns it the ip 10.0.0.254/24

mtu 1492

Sets the mtu size to 1492B

peer default ip address pool PPPoEPOOL

Assigns the previously created pool of ip addresses "PPPoEPOOL" to this template

ppp authentication chap callin

Sets the requirement to authenticate using chap to establish a connection.

Now to associate the template to the PPPoE group

bba-group pppoe global

Creates a bba (broadband aggregation) group for PPPoE

virtual-template 1

Assigns virtual-template 1 to the bba group.

Finally link the PPPoE group to the actual f0/1 interface

int f0/1

Moves to int f0/1

pppoe enable group global

Connects the PPPoE group to the interface

no shut

Activates the interface

Configuring the Cust1 router

First configure the f0/1 interface to use PPPoE

int f0/1

Moves to int f0/1

pppoe enable

Enables PPPoE on the interface

pppoe-client dial-pool-number 1
Tells the router is the client and assigns it the dial pool number of 1. The dial pool number corresponds
with the dialer interface that will be created next. The dialer and the number assigned here must match
to work.

Creating the interface dialer.

int dialer 1

Moves to and creates the dialer interface

mtu 1492

Sets the mtu size to 1492B

ip address negotiated

Tells the interface that the address will be negotiated

encapsulation ppp

Sets the encapsulation to ppp

dialer pool 1

Connects the dialer pool and int f0/1 to the dialer

ppp authentication chap callin

Sets the authentication encryption to chap

ppp chap hostname Cust1

Sets the chap hostname to be used as "Cust1"

ppp chap password ciscopppoe

Sets the chap password to "ciscopppoe"

Set the static default route pointing to dialer 1 and enable some debugging.

ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 dialer 1

Sets the static default route to dialer 1

exit

Moves back to privileged mode

debug ppp authentication

Shows PPP events


debug pppoe events

Shows PPPoE events

Lastly enable interface f0/1 with the "no shut" command

To confirm PPPoE is working use "show pppoe session" and "ping 10.0.0.254". there should be an entry
in the session table and ping should be successful.
