Assigning an IP Address

Because you are configuring a PPP interface on top of the ATM subinterface,
the PPP interface handles the IP address. Rather than configuring an IP
address on the ATM subinterface, you configure the IP address on the PPP
interface.
You can configure a static IP address, or you can configure the PPP interface
to negotiate an IP address from the service provider's access concentrator. To
assign the PPP interface a static IP address, enter the following command from
the PPP interface configuration mode context:
Syntax: ip address <A.B.C.D> <subnet mask | /prefix length>
Replace <A.B.C.D> with the IP address. To specify a subnet mask, replace
<subnet mask> with the subnet mask or replace </prefix length> with the
CIDR notation.
To configure the PPP interface to negotiate an IP address, enter:
Syntax: ip address negotiated
If you need to configure authentication protocols for the connection, see "PPP
Authentication" on page 6-72 of Chapter 6: Configuring the Data Link Layer
Protocol for E1, T1, and Serial Interfaces.

Binding the ATM Subinterface to the PPP Interface

To finish defining the point-to-point layer for the ADSL connection, you must
bind the ATM subinterface to the PPP interface. Enter the following command
from either the global configuration mode context or the PPP interface
configuration mode context:
Syntax: bind <bind number> atm <interface number.subinterface number> ppp <inter-
face number> pppoe-client
Replace <bind number> with a bind number that you have not yet used on
the ProCurve Secure Router. Enter the interface numbers for the ATM sub-
interface and PPP interface that you want to bind together. Include the pppoe-
client option to enable the PPPoE client to establish a PPPoE session with
the service provider's access concentrator.
