Figure11-5. MAX acting as both Home Agent and Foreign Agent
To configure the MAX as a multimode agent, set ATMP Mode to Both and complete both the
Foreign Agent and Home Agent specifications. Setting ATMP Mode to Both indicates that the
MAX will function as both a Home Agent and Foreign Agent on a tunnel-by-tunnel basis.
For example, to configure the MAX to operate as both a Home Agent and Foreign Agent, first
check the interface and set the ATMP options:
1Open Ethernet > Mod Config > Ether Options and verify that the LAN interface has an IP
address. For example:
Ethernet
Mod Config
Ether options...
IP Adrs=10.65.212.226/24
2Open the ATMP Options subprofile and set ATMP Mode to Both.
3Configure the other home-agent settings as appropriate. For example, to use Gateway
mode and a password of private:
ATMP options...
ATMP Mode=Both
Type=Gateway
Password=private
SAP Reply=No
UDP Port=5150
GRE MTU=1472
Force fragmentation=No
Idle limit=0
ATMP SNMP Traps=No
Then set the Foreign Agent aspect of the multimode configuration:
1Open the Auth subprofile and configure RADIUS authentication. For example:
Auth...
Auth=RADIUS
Auth Host #1=10.23.45.11/24
Auth Host #2=0.0.0.0/0
Auth Host #3=0.0.0.0/0
Auth Port=1645
Auth Timeout=1
