Transmission of the Receive Connect Speed AVP When Transmit and Receive Connect Speeds are Equal

The L2TP Rx Connect Speed (in bits per second) AVP, which is represented by AVP 38, is included in the ICCN message when the receive connect speed is different from the transmit connect speed. By default, when the connection speed is the same in both directions, AVP 38 is not sent; the LNS uses the value in AVP 24 for both transmit and receive connect speeds.

AVP 38 is generated when the receive connect speed of the access interface is set equal to the calculated transmit connect speed by issuing the rx-connect-speed-when-equal statement at the [edit services l2tp] hierarchy level. In this scenario, the LAC transmits the same value for transmit and receive connect speeds that are sent to the LNS through the AVP 24 and AVP 38 in the ICCN message.

To configure the sending of AVP 38 when the connection speeds are the same in both the downstream and upstream directions:

  • Configure the transmission of the receive connect speed, AVP 38, when the receive connect speed is set equal to the calculated transmit connect speed.
