Cisco ASA 5500 Series Configuration Guide using the CLI
Chapter72 Configuring the PPPoE Client
Monitoring and Debugging the PPPoE Client
This command causes the ASA to use the specified address instead of negotiating with the PPPoE server
to assign an address dynamically. Replace ipaddress and mask with the IP address and subnet mask
assigned to your ASA.
For example:
hostname(config-if)# ip address outside 201.n.n.n 255.255.255.0 pppoe
Note The setroute option is an option of the ip address command that you can use to allow the access
concentrator to set the default routes when the PPPoE client has not yet established a connection. When
using the setroute option, you cannot have a statically defined route in the configuration.
Monitoring and Debugging the PPPoE Client
Use the following command to display the current PPPoE client configuration information:
hostname# show ip address outside pppoe
Use the following command to enable or disable debugging for the PPPoE client:
hostname# [no] debug pppoe {event | error | packet}
The following summarizes the function of each keyword:
event—Displays protocol event information
error—Displays error messages
packet—Displays packet information
Use the following command to view the status of PPPoE sessions:
hostname# show vpdn session [l2tp | pppoe] [id sess_id | packets | state | window]
The following example shows a sample of information provided by this command:
hostname# show vpdn
