Configuring a Dialer Interface
By binding a physical interface (such as a serial, BRI, PRI, or asynchronous interface) to a dialer interface, you can enable the physical interface to inherit the configuration of the dialer interface.
Context
The dial control center (DCC) provides the dialing service for users. You can configure DCC on the routers connected by Network or on the routers functioning as a PPPoE/PPPoEoA/PPPoA client connecting to a PPPoE/PPPoEoA/PPPoA server.
A dialer interface is a logical interface used to implement DCC. A physical interface can be bound to a dialer interface to inherit the configuration of the dialer interface.
Applicable Environment
- Powering on the device and performing self-check
Procedure
- Run system-view
The system view is displayed.
- Run interface dialer number
A dialer interface is created.
- Configure an IP address of a dialer interface.
Configure an IP address for a dialer interface directly.
Run ip address ip-address { mask | mask-length }
An IP address is configured for the dialer interface.
Configure an IP address assigned by the peer device for a dialer interface.
Run ip address ppp-negotiate
The local dialer interface is configured with an IP address that is assigned by the peer device through PPP negotiation.
