Default command level
2: System level
Parameters
dial-bundle-number number: Specifies the dialer bundle number corresponding to a PPPoE session, in
the range of 1 to 255. A dialer bundle number uniquely identifies a PPPoE session, it can also be used
as a PPPoE session ID.
no-hostuniq: Configures the client to not carry the Host-Uniq field. By default, the Host-Uniq field is
carried.
idle-timeout seconds: Specifies the PPPoE session idle time in the range of 1 to 65535 seconds. If this
option is specified, the PPPoE session operates in packet-triggered mode. If this option is not specified,
the PPPoE session established operates in permanent mode.
queue-length packets: Specifies the number of the packets that can be cached before the PPPoE session
is established. The value range for the packets argument is 1 to 100, and the default is 10. This option
becomes valid only when the idle-timeout keyword is configured.
Usage guidelines
You can establish multiple PPPoE sessions on an Ethernet interface, or an Ethernet interface can belong
to multiple dialer bundles. However, a dialer bundle can correspond to only one Ethernet interface. Each
PPPoE session uniquely corresponds to a dialer bundle. If an Ethernet interface in a dialer bundle of a
dialer interface is used to establish a PPPoE session, you cannot add any interfaces to the dialer bundle.
Likewise, if a dialer bundle contains interfaces other than the PPPoE Ethernet interface, this dialer bundle
cannot be added to an Ethernet interface operating as a PPPoE client.
A PPPoE session operates in one of following modes:
Permanent mode—If you execute the pppoe-client command without specifying the idle-timeout
seconds option, the device initiates a PPPoE call to establish a PPPoE session immediately if the
physical line is up. After the PPPoE session is established, it can only be terminated by the undo
pppoe-client command.
Packet-triggered mode—If you execute the pppoe-client command with the idle-timeout seconds
option specified, the device tries to establish the PPPoE session only when it has data to transmit. For
a PPPoE session operating in this mode, if no data is transmitted across it within the period specified
by the seconds argument, the PPPoE session is terminated automatically.
The difference between the reset pppoe-client command and the undo pppoe-client command lies in
that the former only temporarily terminates a PPPoE session, but the latter permanently removes a PPPoE
session.
After you execute the undo pppoe-client command, the PPPoE session identified by the number argument
is removed permanently, regardless of the operating mode of the PPPoE session. To use the PPPoE session
again, you must establish it from scratch.
Examples
# Establish a PPPoE session on interface Ethernet 1/1.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] interface ethernet 1/1
[Sysname-Ethernet1/1] pppoe-client dial-bundle-number 1
