COMMAND EXECUTED
[Caution]Caution

After adding the POEAC active, you must restart the Abilis to make the resource running (use the command warm start to reboot the Abilis).

[17:14:59] ABILIS_CPX:s p poeac-1 act:yes

COMMAND EXECUTED

[12:59:38] ABILIS_CPX:d p poeac

42.1.2. POEAC resource parameters

Use the following command to display the parameters of the resource; the d p poeac ? command shows the meaning of parameters.

[17:25:33] ABILIS_CPX:d p poeac

RES:PoeAc-1 -------------------------------------------------------------------
Run    DESCR:
       LOG:DS             ACT:YES                max-ipres:10   ipres-rxbuf:2  
       ETHRES:Eth-3                              
       ACNAME:wlan                               
       EMPTY-EQ-ANY:NO    ALL-SERVICES-OFFER:NO   
       ETH-JUMBO-FRAMES:NO
       - VLAN -----------------------------------------------------------------
       VLAN-ID:UNTAG      

Meaning of the most important parametrs:

LOG

Logging functionalities activation/deactivation.

ACT

Runtime POEAC activation/deactivation.

ETHRES

Lower Ethernet resource [NONE, Eth-XXX, EthUsb-XXX, VEth]

max-ipres

Sets the number of PPPoE sessions the module can support. There can't be more than this amount of external sessions connecting at once.

ipres-rxbuf

Sets the number of PPPoE packets received from client a module can hold while sending other packets to remote PPP.

ACNAME

Access Concentrator name; the name of the Access Concentrator is sent along with responses to hosts. This parameter can be left blank in case there is only one AC in the network for each service-name requested.

EMPTY-EQ-ANY

Select whether the EMPTY service specified in PADI and PADR has to be considered a univocal service (more secure) or ANY service.

ALL-SERVICES-OFFER

Select whether PADO will contain only the requested service (more secure) or the list of all other available services too (less secure).

ETH-JUMBO-FRAMES

Enable/disable ethernet jumbo frames (payload >1500 bytes) [NO, YES].

VLAN-ID

VLAN Identifier [0, 1..4094, UNTAG] <Only for ETHRES:Eth>.

PRIO-PPPOED

PPPOED priority over VLAN [0..7] <Only for VLAN-ID <> UNTAG>.

PRIO-LCP-IPCP

LCP and IPCP priority over VLAN [0..7] <Only for VLAN-ID <> UNTAG>.

The following command allows the administrator to change the configuration of the resource:

s p poeac-n parameter:value...

[Caution]Caution

To activate the changes made on the upper case parameters, execute the initialization command init res:poeac; while to set act the changes made on the lowercase parameters a save conf and an Abilis restart are required (i.e. With warm start command).
