Configuring a dialer interface for an IPv6 PPPoE client
Ste
p
Command Remarks
1. Enter system view. system-view N/A
2. Enable IPv6 forwarding.
ipv6 N/A
3. Create a dialer interface.
interface dialer number N/A
4. Create a dialer user. dialer user username N/A
5. Specify an IPv6 address for
the interface.
• Manually:
ipv6 address { ipv6-address prefix-length |
ipv6-address/prefix-length } [ link-local ]
• Automatically:
ipv6 address auto [ link-local ]
Use either command.
6. Associate the interface with
a dialer bundle.
dialer bundle bundle-number N/A
Configuring a PPPoE session
PPPoE sessions fall into these categories: permanent PPPoE session, packet-triggered PPPoE session, and
diagnostic PPPoE session.
• A permanent PPPoE session is established immediately when the line is physically up. It remains
valid till a user terminates it explicitly.
• A packet-triggered PPPoE session is established when there is a demand for data transmitting. It is
terminated when idled for a specific period of time. That is, a packet-triggered PPPoE session may
not be established even if the line is physically up.
• A diagnostic PPPoE session is established immediately after the device configurations finish, and
automatically terminates and then tries to re-establish at a pre-configured interval. By establishing
and terminating PPPoE sessions periodically, you can monitor the working status of the PPPoE links.
To configure a PPPoE session:

Command Remarks
1. Enter system view.
system-view N/A
2. Enter Ethernet interface view.
interface ethernet interface-number N/A
3. Create a PPPoE session, and specify
a dialer bundle for the session.
pppoe-client dial-bundle-number number
[ no-hostuniq ] [ idle-timeout seconds
[ queue-length packets ] ]
By default, no
PPPoE sessions are
created.
NOTE:
• You can establish multiple PPPoE sessions on an Ethernet interface, which means, an Ethernet interface
can belong to multiple dialer bundles at the same time, but a dialer bundle can only have one Etherne
t
interface. A PPPoE session uniquely corresponds to a dialer bundle, vise versa.
• IPv6 PPPoE sessions cannot be packet-triggered PPPoE sessions.
