EtoPPP configuration example

Network requirements

As shown in Figure 118, Router A (the CE) is the gateway for a LAN and is connected to Router B (the EtoPPP device) through an Ethernet interface. Router B is connected to Router C (the PE) through a PPP-encapsulated serial interface formed by bundling timeslots on a T1 line.

Map the Ethernet interface to the PPP interface on Router B through EtoPPP to forward traffic between the two interfaces at Layer 2.

Configuration procedure

  1. Configure the CE (Router A):

    # Configure the IP address of interface Ethernet 1/1 on Router A.

    <RouterA> system-view
    [RouterA] interface ethernet 1/1
    [RouterA-Ethernet1/1] ip address 1.1.1.1 24
    
  2. Configure the PE (Router C):

    # Configure the IP address of the synchronous serial interface formed by timeslot bundling on interface T1 2/0.

    <RouterC> system-view
    [RouterC] controller t1 2/0
    [RouterC-T1 2/0] channel-set 0 timeslot-list 1-24
    [RouterC-T1 2/0] quit
    [RouterC] interface serial 2/0:0
    [RouterC-Serial2/0:0] ip address 1.1.1.2 24
    
  3. Configure the EtoPPP device (Router B):

    # Create the EtoPPP mapping for forwarding the traffic between the CE and the PE.

    <RouterB> system-view
    [RouterB] controller t1 2/0
    [RouterB-T1 2/0] channel-set 0 timeslot-list 1-24
    [RouterB-T1 2/0] quit
