1.1.9 ppp ipcp remote-address forced
Syntax
ppp ipcp remote-address forced
undo ppp ipcp remote-address forced
View
Interface view
Parameter
None
Description
Use the ppp ipcp remote-address forced command to forbid the peer to use the fix
self-configured IP address but the one allocated by this router.
Use the undo ppp ipcp remote-address forced command to cancel the setting of
forcible address allocation, allowing the peer to use its self-configured IP address.
By default, the peer can use its self-configured IP address in PPP IPCP negotiation. If
the peer explicitly requests this end for an address, this end acts as requested; if the
peer already has a self-configured IP address, this end does not allocate one to the
peer.
If the peer is not allowed to use self-configured IP address, you must configure the ppp
ipcp remote-address forced command on the local interface.
Related command: remote address.
Example
# The PPP-encapsulated interface serial 0/0/0 wants to allocate the IP address
10.0.0.1 to the peer. The peer can accept this allocated address, a self-configured
address, or have no address.
[3Com-Serial0/0/0] remote address 10.0.0.1
# The PPP-encapsulated interface serial 0/0/0 wants to allocate the IP address
10.0.0.1 to the peer. The peer must accept this allocated address and cannot use a
self-configured address or have no address.
[3Com-Serial0/0/0] remote address 10.0.0.1
