Configuring the Device as a PPPoE Client on Huawei AR1200

PPPoE is a PPP protocol running on the Ethernet and widely used on campus networks. Carriers want to connect multiple hosts at a site to the same remote access device. The access device is expected to provide access control and accounting for these hosts in a manner similar to dial-up access using PPP. Using PPPoE, carriers can achieve this goal at lower cost ecause Ethernet is the most cost-effective among all access technologies and PPP implements access control and accounting. PPPoE allows a large num er of hosts on an Ethernet to connect to the !nternet using a remote access device and controls each host using PPP. PPPoE features a large application scale, high security, and convenient accounting. The PPPoE technology implements practical applications such as !nternet access accounting and is widely used y road and access carriers. How to configure the device as a PPPoE client on Huawei AR1200 "hen the device functions as a PPPoE client, all hosts in a #$% use one $&'# account to dial up to the !nternet.

Configure an !Pv5 address for the dialer interface. *uni&v' address 0 ipv6-address prefix-length 1 ipv6-address/prefix-length 2 $n !Pv5 address is configured for the dialer interface. !"E# (efore configuring an !Pv5 address for a dialer interface, run the i&v' command in the system view to ena le !Pv5 packet forwarding and run the i&v' ena)le command on the interface to ena le !Pv5.

2 Ena)ling the PPPoE Client *unction on the Interface Context The PPPoE session works in permanent online mode or packet triggered mode.

!n permanent online mode, the device initiates a PPPoE session immediately after the physical link ecomes Up. The PPPoE session persists until you delete it. !n triggered online mode, the device does not initiate a PPPoE session immediately after the physical link ecomes Up. !nstead, the device initiates a PPPoE session only when data needs to e transmitted on the link. !f no data is transmitted on the PPPoE link within the specified period, the device terminates the PPPoE session.

Ethernet interfaces, P6% interfaces, and $T7 interfaces support PPPoE sessions.

"hen the device uses an Ethernet interface or a P6% interface to connect to an $&'# modem, create a PPPoE session on the Ethernet interface or the P6% interface. "hen the device uses an $T7 interface to connect to the !nternet directly, create a PPPoE session on the virtual Ethernet interface ound to the $&'# interface.
