This chapter explains dynamic interfaces and describes the procedures for configuring
them on E Series routers.
This chapter contains the following sections:

Before you begin configuring dynamic interfaces in bulk, review the concepts described
in this section.
Like upper-layer dynamic interfaces, bulk-configured dynamic interfaces are created
automatically and transparently through the receipt of data over a lower-layer link, such
as an ATM virtual circuit (VC) or a virtual LAN (VLAN) using autodetection. The layers of
a dynamic interface are created based on the packets received on the link and can be
configured through any one of the following:
RADIUS authentication (through PPP or ATM 1483)
Profiles
A combination of RADIUS authentication and profiles
You create and configure each layer of a static interface manually through an existing
configuration mechanism such as the command-line interface (CLI) or Simple Network
Management Protocol (SNMP).
For more information about dynamic interfaces, autodetection, and RADIUS, see
"Overview" on page 511 in "Configuring Dynamic Interfaces" on page 511.
