Release Notes for Cisco 827 Routers

Release Notes for Cisco 827 Routers

This document describes new and changed information for the Cisco 827 Routers Hardware Installation Guide and the Cisco 827 Routers Software Configuration Guide.

For last-minute updates to this release note, refer to the Cisco 827 routers documentation Web site at http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/access/acs_fix/index.htm.

ADSL Cable Requirements

The ADSL cable that you connect to the Cisco 827 router must be 10BaseT Category 5, Unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cable. Using regular telephone cable can introduce line errors.

DHCP Client Support

Perform the following steps to configure the router for DHCP client support:


Step 1   Configure the BVI interface by entering the ip address dhcp client-id Ethernet 0 command.

Specifying the value client-id ethernet0 means that the MAC address of the Ethernet interface will be used as the client ID when the DHCP request is sent. Otherwise, the MAC address of the BVI interface will be used as the client ID.

Step 2   Configure NAT.

Step 3   Configure the Cisco 827 router to act as a DHCP server. This step is optional.

Configuration Example

The following example shows a configuration of the DHCP client.

Dialer Interface Configuration

The "Configuring the Dialer Interface" section in "Feature-By-Feature Router Configurations," of the Cisco 827 Routers Software Configuration Guide has an incorrect router prompt in Step 4. The prompt should be Router(config-if).

Easy IP (Phase 1) Configuration

The "Configuring Easy IP (Phase 1)" section in "Feature-By-Feature Router Configurations," of the Cisco 827 Routers Software Configuration Guide has an incorrect reference in Step 2. The task should refer to the access list defined in Step 1 rather than in Step 2.

Multilink PPP and Interleaving

Multilink PPP fragments large data packets so that small voice packets can be interleaved within them. However, apart from first-in-first-out (FIFO) queuing, no other kind of output queuing mechanisms are currently supported with PPP over ATM. Consequently, when multilink PPP is configured on the Cisco 827 routers, the big packets are fragmented, but interleaving of small voice packets within them does not occur.

NAT Support for H.323 Signaling

Currently, NAT does not support alerting H.225 messages. Because of that, NAT communication cannot be established between the router end points.

NAT support for H.323 signaling is limited to the Netmeeting application.

PPP over AAL5SNAP Encapsulation Support

PPP over AAL5SNAP encapsulation is currently not supported, although the context-sensitive help mentions that it can be configured.

PPP over Ethernet Support

This feature supports the PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE) client on an ATM permanent virtual circuit (PVC). Only one PPPoE client on a single ATM PVC is supported. The PPPoE client over an ATM interface is supported for all 820 platforms.

The following figure depicts a typical deployment scenario for PPPoE support:


Figure 1: PPPoE Deployment Scenario

A PPPoE session is initiated on the client side by the network described above. If the session has a timeout or is disconnected, the PPPoE client immediately attempts to reestablish the session.

Follow these steps to configure the router for PPPoE client support:


Step 1   Configure the vpdn group number.

Step 2   Configure the ATM interface with PPPoE support.

Step 3   Configure the dialer interface by entering the int dialer number command.

Also configure a dialer list corresponding to the dialer-group:


Note   There can be multiple PPPoE clients each running on a different PVCs, in which case, each client has to use a separate dialer interface and a separate dialer pool, and the PPP parameters need to be applied on the dialer interface.

If you enter the clear vpdn tunnel pppoe command with a PPPoE client session already established, the PPPoE client session terminates and the PPPoE client immediately tries to reestablish the session.

Configuration Example

The following example shows a configuration of a PPPoE client.

vpdn enable
vpdn-group 1
	request-dialin
protocol pppoe
 
int atm0
 
pvc 1/100
	pppoe-client dial-pool-number 1
 
int dialer 1
ip address negotiated
ppp authentication chap
dialer pool 1
dialer-group 1
