ARAMETERS

These parameters are displayed:

Interface – Port or trunk selection.

PPPoE IA Status – Enables the PPPoE IA on an interface.

(Default: Disabled)
Note that PPPoE IA must also be enabled globally on the switch for this

command to take effect.

Trust Status – Sets an interface to trusted mode to indicate that it is

connected to a PPPoE server. (Default: Disabled)

Set any interfaces connecting the switch to a PPPoE Server as

trusted. Interfaces that connect the switch to users (PPPoE clients)

should be set as untrusted.

At least one trusted interface must be configured on the switch for

the PPPoE IA to function.

Vendor Tag Strip – Enables the stripping of vendor tags from PPPoE

Discovery packets sent from a PPPoE server. (Default: Disabled)
This parameter only applies to trusted interfaces. It is used to strip off

vendor-specific tags (which carry subscriber and line identification

information) in PPPoE Discovery packets received from an upstream

PPPoE server before forwarding them to a user.

Circuit ID – String identifying the circuit identifier (or interface) on this

switch to which the user is connected. (Range: 1-10 ASCII characters;

Default: Unit/Port:VLAN-ID, or 0/Trunk-ID:VLAN-ID)

The PPPoE server extracts the Line-ID tag from PPPoE discovery

stage messages, and uses the Circuit-ID field of that tag as a NAS-

Port-ID attribute in AAA access and accounting requests.
