LABEL
DESCRIPTION
Active
Select this option to enable the PPPoE intermediate agent globally on the Switch.
access-node-
Enter up to 20 ASCII characters to identify the PPPoE intermediate agent. Hyphens (-) and
identifier
spaces are also allowed. The default is the Switch's host name.
circuit-id
Use this section to configure the Circuit ID field in the PADI and PADR packets.
The Circuit ID you configure for a specific port or for a specific VLAN on a port has priority
over this.
The Circuit ID you configure for a specific port (in the Advanced Application > PPPoE >
Intermediate Agent > Port screen) or for a specific VLAN on a port (in the Advanced
Application > PPPoE > Intermediate Agent > Port > VLAN screen) has priority over
this. That means, if you also want to configure PPPoE IA Per-Port or Per-Port Per-VLAN
setting, leave the fields here empty and configure circuit-id and remote-id in the Per-Port
or Per-Port Per-VLAN screen.
Active
Select this option to have the Switch add the user-defined identifier string and variables
(specified in the option field) to PADI or PADR packets from PPPoE clients.
If you leave this option unselected and do not configure any Circuit ID string (using CLI
commands) on the Switch, the Switch will use the string specified in the access-node-
identifier field.
identifier-
Specify a string that the Switch adds in the Agent Circuit ID sub-option. You can enter up
string
to 53 ASCII characters. Spaces are allowed.
option
Select the variables that you want the Switch to generate and add in the Agent Circuit ID
sub-option. The variable options include sp, sv, pv and spv which indicate combinations
of slot-port, slot-VLAN, port-VLAN and slot-port-VLAN respectively. The Switch enters a
zero into the PADI and PADR packets for the slot value.
delimiter
Select a delimiter to separate the identifier-string, slot ID, port number and/or VLAN ID
from each other. You can use a pound key (#), semi-colon (;), period (.), comma (,),
forward slash (/) or space.
Apply
Click Apply to save your changes to the Switch's run-time memory. The Switch loses
these changes if it is turned off or loses power, so use the Save link on the top navigation
panel to save your changes to the non-volatile memory when you are done configuring.
Cancel
Click Cancel to begin configuring this screen afresh.
