Can't connect with PPPoA for ATM to Eth Migration
Hi All,

We're moving customers from ATM to Ethernet and we have two customers
that are using PPPoX to connect.

customer modem ---phone line---> [ 3rd Party Provider ] --- ethernet
---> [Our Network] ---> agr1

I migrated my test connection from ATM to Ethernet to make sure PPPoX
connections could be established but can't connect when I use PPPoA.
Works great with PPPoE. This makes me nervous because I'm not sure if
customer xxx will be able to connect.

Vi1.1 xxx@adsl PPPoATM 00:00:00 A.B.C.D
Vi3.1 yyy@adsl PPPoE 00:00:21 A.B.C.E

Customer xxx is using PPPoA and customer yyyy is using PPPoE.

Their ATM config on the agr1 router is like so:

bba-group pppoe global
virtual-template 1
!
interface ATM1/0.302935 point-to-point
description Customer yyy / pppoe
bandwidth 4000
ip flow ingress
no atm enable-ilmi-trap
pvc 10/158
ubr 4096
encapsulation aal5snap
protocol ppp Virtual-Template1
protocol pppoe
!
interface ATM1/0.301707 point-to-point
description Customer xxx / pppoa
bandwidth 2048
ip flow ingress
no atm enable-ilmi-trap
pvc 10/111
ubr 2048
oam-pvc manage
oam retry 3 3 10
encapsulation aal5snap
protocol ppp Virtual-Template1

The configuration is pretty straightforward for my test connection on
the ethernet sub-interface of our agr1 router.

interface GigabitEthernet0/1.350
description PPPoX Test
encapsulation dot1Q 350
ip flow ingress
pppoe enable group global

Do I need to do configure something else either on the ethernet
sub-interface or globally to allow PPPoA connections to be established?
Or is this something that needs to be done on our 3rd Party Provider's
end?

Thanks.

Andy

I'm not aware of a capability to do PPPoA over Ethernet. You need to do it
over ATM.
