Configuring Dynamic PPPoE Subscriber Interfaces Using Dynamic Profiles

You can configure dynamic PPP-over-Ethernet (PPPoE) subscriber interfaces by using dynamic profiles. To enable the router to create a dynamic PPPoE subscriber interface on a PPPoE underlying interface, you define the attributes of the PPPoE logical interface in a dynamic profile, and then configure the underlying interface to use the dynamic profile.

To configure a dynamic PPPoE subscriber interface:

  1. Configure a dynamic profile to define the attributes of the PPPoE logical interface.
  2. Configure the underlying Ethernet interface to use the dynamic profile for PPPoE.

    See Configuring an Underlying Interface for Dynamic PPPoE Subscriber Interfaces.

  3. (Optional) Assign a dynamic profile and routing instance to a service name or ACI/ARI pair in a PPPoE service name table to instantiate a dynamic PPPoE subscriber interface based on the information provided by the PPPoE client.

    See Assigning a Dynamic Profile and Routing Instance to a Service Name or ACI/ARI Pair for Dynamic PPPoE Interface Creation.

  4. (Optional) Verify the dynamic PPPoE configuration by displaying or clearing PPPoE session statistics, and displaying information about the underlying Ethernet interface and PPPoE logical interface.

    See Verifying and Managing Dynamic PPPoE Configuration.
