Remote Address - H3C MSR Series Command Reference Manual

Usage guidelines
In PPP negotiation, if the local device receives no response from the peer during the timeout time after it
sends a packet, the local device sends the last packet again.
Examples
# Set the PPP negotiation timeout time to 5 seconds.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] interface serial 2/0
[Sysname-Serial2/0] ppp timer negotiate 5

remote address

Use remote address to configure an interface to assign an IP address to the client.
Use undo remote address to cancel the assigned IP address.
Syntax
remote address { ip-address | pool pool-name }
undo remote address
Default
An interface does not assign an IP address to the client.
Views
Interface view
Predefined user roles
network-admin
Parameters
ip-address: Specifies the IP address to be assigned to the client.
pool pool-name: Specifies an address pool by its name from which an IP address is assigned to the client.
The pool name is a case-sensitive string of 1 to 31 characters.
Usage guidelines
This command can be used when the local interface is configured with an IP address, but the peer has
no IP address. To enable the peer to accept the IP address assigned by the local interface (server), you
must configure the ip address ppp-negotiate command on the peer to make the peer act as a client.
The remote address command does not take effect until the next IPCP negotiation. To make the
configuration of the remote address command take effect, configure this command before the ip address
command, which triggers IPCP negotiation. If you configure the remote address command after the ip
address command, the server assigns an IP address to the client during the next IPCP negotiation.
After you use the remote address command to assign an IP address to the client, you can configure the
remote address command again or the undo remote address command for the peer, but the new
configuration does not take effect until the next IPCP negotiation.
Examples
# Specify the IP address to be assigned to the client as 10.0.0.1 on Serial 2/0.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] interface serial 2/0
