Associating an Access Node with Subscribers for ANCP Operations
The ANCP agent on the router uses the access loop circuit identifier (ACI) to distinguish individual ANCP subscribers. Because the agent uses the ACI to associate (map) each subscriber to an interface or interface set, each ACI must be unique across all ANCP neighbors connected to the router.
The ACIs can be statically or dynamically configured. When the subscriber’s DHCP or PPPoE discovery packets contain the ACI, then the agent can dynamically map it to the interface or interface set. Otherwise, the ACI must be statically configured, the ACI agent. A static configuration overrides dynamic mapping of ACIs—and therefore subscribers—to interfaces or sets.
To associate an access loop circuit identifier with a set of VLAN interfaces for subscribers:
- Specify the name of the interface set and the unique access
loop circuit identifier for the access node.[edit protocols ancp interfaces]user@host# set interface-set vlan5 access-identifier “dslam port 2/3”
- (Optional) Specify the access node address when the identifier
is unique only to the node.[edit protocols ancp interfaces]user@host# set interface-set vlan5 neighbor 10.3.5.6
To associate an access loop circuit identifier with a single VLAN:
- Specify the logical interface and the unique access loop
circuit identifier for the access node.[edit protocols ancp interfaces]user@host# set ge-1/0/4.12 access-identifier “dslam port-2-10”
- (Optional) Specify the access node address when the identifier
is unique only to the node.[edit protocols ancp interfaces]user@host# set ge-1/0/4.12 neighbor 10.12.3.4
To associate an access loop circuit identifier with a static VLAN demux interface:
- Specify the logical interface and the unique access loop
circuit identifier for the access node.[edit protocols ancp interfaces]user@host# set demux0.100 access-identifier aci_100_1_0
- (Optional) Specify the access node address when the identifier
is unique only to the node.[edit protocols ancp interfaces]user@host# set demux0.100 neighbor 10.100.0.1
