Chapter 6 Configuring PPPoE over Ethernet and IEEE 802.1Q VLAN
PPPoE over Ethernet
Feature History for PPPoE over Ethernet
Restrictions for PPPoE over Ethernet
The PPPoE over Ethernet feature has the following restriction:
• The Cisco 10000 series router currently supports the PPPoE over Ethernet feature on Gigabit
Ethernet line cards and Fast Ethernet 8-port half-height line cards. The Fast Ethernet port of the
performance routing engine (PRE) does not support the PPPoE over Ethernet feature.
Note The Cisco 10000 series router supports a Fast Ethernet interface for management traffic only.
Configuration Tasks for PPPoE over Ethernet
To configure the PPPoE over Ethernet feature, perform the following configuration tasks:
• Configuring a Virtual Template Interface, page 6-2
• Creating an Ethernet Interface and Enabling PPPoE, page 6-3
• Configuring PPPoE in a VPDN Group, page 6-3
• Configuring PPPoE in a BBA Group, page 6-3
Configuring a Virtual Template Interface
Configure a virtual template before you configure PPPoE on an Ethernet interface. The virtual template
interface is a logical entity that is applied dynamically as needed to an incoming PPP session request.
To configure a virtual template interface, see the
“Configuring a Virtual Template Interface” section on
page 3-17.
