Re: Cisco 7206 IOS for PPPoE Termination
I know how to use Google dear Mark, but I mean which configuration is working succesfully in their network. I am currently using this config: bba-group pppoe TEST virtual-template 1 sessions per-mac limit 2 sessions per-vlan limit 5000 sessions per-vc throttle 15 30 300 sessions per-mac throttle 15 30 300 sessions auto cleanup On Mon, Sep 24, 2012 at 4:32 AM, Sean Lazar wrote: > http://lmgtfy.com/?q=site%3Acisco.com+ios+broadband+aggregation+guide > > On 9/23/12 1:50 PM, Shahab Vahabzadeh wrote: > > why joking Mark? > > > > On Mon, Sep 24, 2012 at 12:19 AM, Mark Gauvin wrote: > > > >> You are joking I hope > >> > >> Sent from my iPhone > >> > >> On 2012-09-23, at 3:38 PM, "Shahab Vahabzadeh" > > >> wrote: > >> > >>> Dear Paul, > >>> Thanks for you reply, May I have those optimization knobs for > >>> virtual-template and throttles? > >>> Maybe looking into your configurations help me in this field. > >>> I will look for the service provider image too. > >>> Thanks > >>> > >>> On Sun, Sep 23, 2012 at 11:17 PM, PC wrote: > >>> > For this application, you may wish to consider the service provider > >> images. > The latest 15.x(S) image works, as it is the derivative of what was > formerly the service-provider oriented 12.2(SRx) images. > > However, it's unlikely to drop steady state CPU, but it may contain > some > optimizations for concurrent PPP (re)negotiations on the G2 platform > >> during > session recovery. > > PPPoE will generally handle more users on ethernet as it is easier to > >> push > packets on when not dealing with the ATM encapsulations, but to what > >> extent > this holds true on the 7200, I can't tell you for sure. > > I'd also read the broadband aggregation guide under the IOS > >> documentation > on cisco.com, and tune all the knobs that may help you, there are > some > pointers on what items on virtual-templates are punitive in > performance, > other optional items such as disabling SNMP counters on virtual access > interfaces to reduce cpu usage, and other items that may help little > by > little.

Dear Paul, Thanks for you reply, May I have those optimization knobs for virtual-template and throttles? Maybe looking into your configurations help me in this field.

Re: Cisco 7206 IOS for PPPoE Termination
For this application, you may wish to consider the service provider images. The latest 15.x(S) image works, as it is the derivative of what was formerly the service-provider oriented 12.2(SRx) images. However, it's unlikely to drop steady state CPU, but it may contain some optimizations for concurrent PPP (re)negotiations on the G2 platform during session recovery. PPPoE will generally handle more users on ethernet as it is easier to push packets on when not dealing with the ATM encapsulations, but to what extent this holds true on the 7200, I can't tell you for sure. I'd also read the broadband aggregation guide under the IOS documentation on cisco.com, and tune all the knobs that may help you, there are some pointers on what items on virtual-templates are punitive in performance, other optional items such as disabling SNMP counters on virtual access interfaces to reduce cpu usage, and other items that may help little by little. There are also various knobs to throttle PPPoE renegotiation rates during recovery. I wish you luck (and consider getting another and/or bigger router to split the load).

Re: Cisco 7206 IOS for PPPoE Termination
6000 PPP users on a NPE-G2 is way too much imho. Currently we do no more than 3000 users on a NPE-G2 with PPPoA. (Max cpu 50%). 5 years ago, we did about 5000 users on a NPE-G2, but as traffic ratio's grow each year the maximum users a NPE-G2 can handle will drop each year. Don't forget an NPE-G2 is a software based plaform, so traffic forwarding is done in software CPU. regards, Rinse Kloek Op 23-9-2012 20:51, Shahab Vahabzadeh schreef: Hello everybody, I am using C7206 VXR NPE-G2 routers as BRAS in my network and the current IOS is *c7200p-adventerprisek9-mz.124-24.T.bin* on them.
