pppoe lcp echo-failure

This command sets the Link Control Protocol (LCP) echo timeout for the PPPoE tunnel.

Syntax

pppoe lcp echo-failure <timeout>

timeout is the number of timeouts allowed. Range: 1‐10

Command Mode

Interface Configuration (Ethernet)

Command Usage

Echo requests are used to verify the integrity of the link through the PPPoE tunnel. Devices at either end of the link can issue an echo‐request. Devices receiving an echo‐request must return an echo‐reply.

If a link is busy with large data transfers, the echo‐reply may not be issued in a timely manner causing the link to timeout. If you experience this kind of problem, try extending the echo interval or timeout.
