Any Cisco PPPoE gurus around? please take a look
Discussion
Hey,
I'm trying to configure a Cisco running IOS 12.2(11)T to terminate a PPPoE session from a nearby Linux box.
How do I set up the Service Name on the router that will match what the Client will send out in the PADI?
Been search through the Cisco site for a while now - anyone done this before?
cheers

Finally figured this one out with a bit of tcpdump
tcpdump -i eth0 ether proto 0x8863 '||' ether proto 0x8864
Cisco Routers send back their host name as the AC_NAME - so long as your PPPoE Client is configured to use that AC_NAME then the Cisco just echoes back the Service Name that the PPPoE client originally requested.
Not exactly what I wanted but hey I've now got multiple PPPoE sessions running into the router which is what I needed to keep my customer happy
