Configuring the Cisco 10000 Series Router for High Scalability
Example 2-7 Configuring the L2TP Tunnel Receive-Window and Retransmit Timeout Parameters
Router(config)# vpdn-group tunnel1
Router(config-if)# l2tp tunnel receive-window 100
Router(config-if)# l2tp tunnel retransmit timeout min 2
Router(config-if)# l2tp tunnel retransmit timeout max 8
VPDN Group Session Limiting
Before the introduction of the VPDN Group Session Limiting feature introduced in Cisco IOS software
release 12.2(1)DX, you could only globally limit the number of VPDN sessions on a router with limits
applied equally to all VPDN groups. Using the VPDN Group Session Limiting feature, you can limit the
number of VPDN sessions allowed per VPDN group. For more information, see the VPDN Group
Session Limiting feature documentation, located at the following URL:

Configuring the PPP Authentication Timeout
To keep the L2TP network server (LNS) from timing out a PPP authentication process, set the
PPP Timeout parameter to 100, using the ppp timeout authentication command (
Example 2-8 ).
Example 2-8 Configuring the PPP Authentication Timeout
Router(config)# interface Virtual-Template1
Router(config-if)# ppp timeout authentication 100
Disabling Cisco Discovery Protocol
To maximize scalability, do not enable the Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP).
Note CDP is disabled by default.
Disabling Gratuitous ARP Requests
To maximize the performance of the router, disable gratuitous ARP requests, using the no ip
gratuitous-arp command (
Example 2-9 ).
Example 2-9 Disabling Gratuitous ARP Requests
Router(config)# no ip gratuitous-arp
