PPPoE Service Selection

The PPPoE Service Selection feature uses service tags to enable a PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE) server to offer PPPoE clients a selection of services during call setup. You choose one of the services offered, and the service is provided when the PPPoE session becomes active. This feature enables service providers to offer a variety of services and to charge you according to the service chosen.

Prerequisites for PPPoE Service Selection

  • PPPoE must be configured using PPPoE profile configuration rather than virtual private dial-up network (VPDN) group configuration as described in the "Providing Protocol Support for Broadband Aggregation of PPPoE Sessions" module.

  • The PPPoE client must support service tags in the PPPoE discovery phase.

  • The procedures in this document assume that RADIUS accounting and authentication, and PPPoE are configured and working, if you use PPPoE service selection to offer tunneling services.

  • You must configure either the subscriber authorization enable or the vpdn enable command before configuring PPPoE service selection to successfully create service names.

Information About PPPoE Service Selection

PPPoE Service Selection Through Service Tags

PPPoE service selection enables a PPPoE server to offer clients a selection of services during call setup. The PPPoE client chooses one of the services offered, and that service is provided when the PPPoE session becomes active.

PPPoE service selection works through the exchange of service tags during the PPPoE discovery phase. When a client initiates a call with a PPPoE Active Discovery Initiation (PADI) packet, the PPPoE server responds with a PPPoE Active Discovery Offer (PADO) packet that advertises a list of available services. The client selects a service and sends a PPPoE Active Discovery Request (PADR) packet that indicates the service name that was selected.

When the PPPoE server receives the PADR packet that indicates the chosen service, the PPPoE server handles the service name in the same manner as a domain name. The service profile for the service name is retrieved from a RADIUS server, and the attributes within that service profile are applied to the call.

PPPoE Service Names

Each PPPoE service has a service name, which can be defined as a set of characteristics that are applied to a PPPoE connection when that service name is selected during call setup.

When you configure PPPoE service selection, you can define a RADIUS service profile for each service name, list in a subscriber profile the service names that you want to advertise, and then assign the subscriber profile to a PPPoE profile. The PPPoE server advertises the service names that are listed in the subscriber profile to each PPPoE client connection that uses the configured PPPoE profile.

If a subscriber profile is not assigned to a PPPoE profile, the PPPoE connections that use that PPPoE profile are established without the additional service tags in the discovery packets. If a port is configured with a static service name (using the vpn service command), the static service name takes precedence, and no services are advertised to the client.

The Cisco RADIUS vendor-specific attribute (VSA) "service-name" is used in RADIUS accounting records to log the service name that was selected by the client. This attribute is also used to download the service names from the subscriber profile when the subscriber profile is defined on the RADIUS server.

You can use the pppoe-client dial-pool-number command to configure a PPPoE client. While configuring the PPPoE client, you can also specify the service name requested by the PPPoE client. This service name allows the PPPoE client to signal a service name to the Broadband Access Aggregation System (BRAS). By default, no service name is signaled and the service name value is set to NULL.

A single Permanent Virtual Connection (PVC) can support multiple PPPoE clients and redundancy. You can use the pppoe-client dial-pool-number command to configure one or more concurrent client PPPoE sessions on a single Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) PVC.

RADIUS Service Profiles for PPPoE Service Selection

A service profile must be created on the RADIUS server for each service name. The service profile contains attributes that define how the call is handled. Currently, two sets of attributes are available for defining service profiles: attributes that define tunneling and attributes that define the quality of service (QoS) that is applied to the permanent virtual circuit (PVC) on which the PPPoE call is coming in.

The table below lists some of the attributes that are supported in RADIUS service profiles for PPPoE service selection.

Benefits of PPPoE Service Selection

PPPoE service selection enables a service provider to use PPPoE to offer a selection of services to you and to charge you according to the service selected. For example, a wholesaler could offer different levels of service by defining multiple service profiles for the same tunnel but with different levels of QoS for the ATM PVC. The wholesaler would be able to charge you according to the level of service provided.

PPPoE service selection could also be used by access providers to avoid link control protocol (LCP) negotiation at the Layer 2 Tunnel Protocol (L2TP) access concentrator (LAC) for sessions that are to be forwarded to tunnels. Avoiding LCP negotiation at the LAC can improve scalability of the LAC during call setup and help alleviate the load on the LAC while all the sessions on the LAC are reconnecting after an outage.

Attributes Used to Define a RADIUS Service Profile for PPPoE Selection

The table below lists some of the attributes that can be used to define a RADIUS service profile for PPPoE service selection. These attributes are defined when setting up the RADIUS server.

Table 1. Attributes for the RADIUS Service Profile for PPPoE Service Selection

RADIUS Entry

Purpose 


User-Service-Type = Outbound-User

Configures the service type as outbound. 


Cisco-AVpair = "vpdn:tunnel-id=
name
"

Specifies the name of the tunnel that must match the LNS’s VPDN terminate-from hostname. 


Cisco-AVpair = "vpdn:tunnel-type=l2tp"

Specifies Layer 2 Tunnel Protocol (L2TP). 


Cisco-AVpair = "vpdn:ip-addresses=
ip-address
"

Specifies the IP address of L2TP network server (LNS). 


Cisco-AVpair = "atm:peak-cell-rate=
kbps
"

Specifies the peak cell rate, in kbps, that is applied to the ATM PVC on which a PPPoE session is being established. 


Cisco-AVpair = "atm:sustainable-cell-rate=
kbps
"

Specifies the sustainable cell rate, in kbps, that is applied to the ATM PVC on which a PPPoE session is being established.

Attributes Used to Configure a Subscriber Profile on the RADIUS Server for PPPoE Service Selection

The table below lists the attributes that can be used to configure a RADIUS subscriber profile to support PPPoE service selection.

The default AAA authorization method list determines where the policy manager looks for the subscriber profile. When the subscriber profile is configured remotely, the aaa authorization network default group radius command must be included in the AAA configuration so the policy manager knows to look for the subscriber policy on a AAA server. These attributes are defined while configuring the RADIUS server. Refer to the RADIUS server documentation for information about how to perform this configuration.

Table 2. Attributes for the RADIUS Subscriber Profile for PPPoE Service Selection

RADIUS Entry

Purpose 


User-Service-Type = Outbound-User

Configures the service type as outbound. 


Cisco-AVpair = "pppoe:service-name=
service-name
"

Specifies a PPPoE service name that is listed in this subscriber profile.

How to Offer PPPoE Service Selection

Configuring the Subscriber Profile for PPPoE Service Selection

The subscriber profile contains the list of services that is advertised to PPPoE clients. You can configure the subscriber profile locally on the router or on the RADIUS server.

If the services are defined locally and the subscriber services points to RADIUS server, the PPPoE services must come from RADIUS which is not been defined, empty, or unavailable for specific reason. You can configure either the subscriber authorization enable or the vpdn enable command before configuring PPPoE service selection to successfully create service names.

Perform this task to configure a local subscriber profile for PPPoE service selection.

Before you begin

The default AAA authorization method list determines where the policy manager looks for the subscriber profile. When the subscriber profile is configured locally, the aaa authorization network default local command must be included in the AAA configuration so the policy manager knows to look for the subscriber policy locally.

Configuration Examples for PPPoE Service Selection

Example PPPoE Service Selection with ATM QoS and Tunneling Services

In the following example, three services are configured: gold-isp-A, silver-isp-A, and isp-xyz. The gold and silver services are forwarded onto the same tunnel, but the ATM PVCs between the LAC and DSLAM is set up with different QoS parameters depending on the level of service chosen. The isp-xyz service offers users access to the services of the xyz Internet service provider.

In this example, the subscriber profile is configured locally on the PPPoE server.

RADIUS Service Profile Configuration
