Procedure
l
Configure the IPoA-IPoE protocol conversion.
A user can access the Internet in the IPoA mode only after the IPoA-IPoE protocol
conversion is enabled.
1.
In the global config mode, run the
mac-pool
command to configure the MAC address
pool, which is used to allocate source MAC addresses to IPoA users. By default, the
number of the MAC addresses in the MAC address pool is 256, which can be changed
by setting parameter
scope
.
The MAC address encapsulated into packets during the IPoA-IPoE protocol
conversion is the MAC address allocated to the user from the MAC address pool.
2.
Run the
ipoa enable
command to enable the IPoA-IPoE protocol conversion. By
default, the IPoA-IPoE protocol conversion is disabled.
3.
Run the
encapsulation
command to set the user packet encapsulation mode (select
ipoa
as the encapsulation mode).
NOTE
l
Configure either the
ipoa default gateway
command or the
dstip
parameter in the
encapsulation
command. If the MA5616 works in the L2 mode, set the IP address of the
upper-layer router as the default gateway. If the MA5616 works in the L3 mode, set the IP
address of the L3 interface corresponding to the MA5616 as the default gateway.
l
IPoA encapsulation is not supported in the single-PVC for multiple services application.
l
To switch the encapsulation mode from PPPoA to IPoA, you must change the encapsulation
mode to llc bridge first and then perform switching.
4.
Run the
ipoa expire-time
command to set the aging time of the IPoA user forwarding
entry. By default, the aging time of the IPoA user forwarding entry is 1200s. The
default value is recommended.
l
Configure the PPPoA-PPPoE protocol conversion.
A user can access the Internet through the PPPoA dialup only after the PPPoA-PPPoE
protocol conversion is enabled.
1.
In the global config mode, run the
mac-pool
command to configure the MAC address
pool, which is used to allocate source MAC addresses to PPPoA users. By default, the
number of the MAC addresses in the MAC address pool is 256, which can be changed
by setting parameter
scope
.
