Another Cisco Q

Wyvern971 · 2 Aug 2006 at 20:33

I've got a Cisco Router with an ADSL connex.

I'm trying to set it up at the moment, but am not sure what encapsulation to use........

My ISP states to use "VC MUX" unfortunately under the encapsulation options I have are somewhat different.

They are:

PPoA with AAL5MUX
PPoA with AAL5SNAP
-------I Don't think it's any of these---------
PPoE
RFC1843 Routing with AAL5MUX
RFC1843 Routing with AAL5SNAP
-----------------------------------------

Which one is the one I want?

you setting this up from the console or doing it from the dodgy gui??

Dodgy gui as I need my regular Draytek elsewhere next week and haven't had enough time to learn the router CLI just yet

You're on fire today, almost like having a secont Tolien about

O/T have you found a perm job yet (Take it you didn't hear from my boss after you sent your CV as he didn't mention it afterwards)

lol, cheers!

I'm working as a senior NOC engineer in the city now,

OK, this is knocked up very quickly...

firstly you need an ATM interface...

interface ATM0
no ip address
no ip mroute-cache
atm ilmi-keepalive
bundle-enable
dsl operating-mode auto
pvc 0/38
encapsulation aal5mux ppp dialer
dialer pool-member 1

then you need to create a dialer on it....

interface Dialer1
ip unnumbered Ethernet0
encapsulation ppp
dialer pool 1
dialer-group 1
ppp authentication chap callin
ppp chap hostname username
ppp chap password 7 password
ppp pap sent-username username password 7 password
ppp ipcp address accept
hold-queue 224 in

obviously you'll need to put in your details for it to work

also, it's IOS obviously but I've never used the gui so i can't give you many pointers there..

No probs m8 thanks a lot I'll give it a go

Congrats on the Job

I would have preffered to have done it via the CLI but I'm still learning and am unfortunately too short on time
