o2 broadband configuration
This paragraph is also here Cisco 1941 with EHWIC-VA-DSL-M
o2 is one of this UK odd ISPs who is using RFC 1483 Bridge when providing ADSL2+ Internet access. Below are details provided by O2 and config build on this information.
ISP name: O2 Home Broadband
Encapsulation: RFC 1483 Bridged
Multiplexing method: LLC-Based
VPI: 0
VCI: 101
Username: leave blank
Password: leave blank
Domain name: leave blank
IP address type: this depends on whether you chose our static IP address option or not:
If you didn't choose our static IP address option, set this to dynamic IP
If you did choose our static IP address, enter the IP address printed in your welcome letter
DNS servers: choose to get these dynamically from the Internet provider
NAT: enable
Primary DNS server: 87.194.255.155
Secondary DNS server: Leave blank
If you have a static IP address, you should enter the following DNS server address:
Primary DNS server: 87.194.255.154

- A BVI (Bridged Virtual Interface)
- is a virtual interface that acts like a normal routed interface. A BVI does not support bridging but actually represents the corresponding bridge group to routed interfaces. The interface number is the link between the BVI and the bridge group. Think of the BVI as the default gateway to all the bridge interfaces, all local traffic is bridged between the bridge interfaces, but the traffic that is not local to the bridge group is routed via the BVI interface.

- Integrated Routing and Bridging
bridge irbcommand enables Integrated Routing and Bridging, then sub-interface atm0/1/0.1 and gi0/0 belong to the same Bridge Group 1 having bothbridge-group 1in their interface configurations. BVI1 (bridge virtual interface) is configured to represents both atm0/1/0.1 and gi0/0 interfaces when ip protocol is routed. Two lines at the bottombridge 1 protocol ieeeandbridge 1 route ipdefine the Bridge Group 1 is using IEEE bridge protocol and routes IP protocol.
Below config is working with O2 as of 8th Oct 2013, public ip address is provided by ISP dhcp server. Please see sub-interface atm0/1/0.1 command ip address dhcp therefore static ip route something like ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 O2_gateway_ip is excluded. Please think about both commands when configuring static IP address given by O2.
Configuration step-by-step
- Configure ATM interface
interface ATM0/0/0 no ip address no ip redirects no ip unreachables no ip proxy-arp atm restart timer 300 no atm ilmi-keepalive dsl operating-mode auto no shutdown ! interface ATM0/0/0.1 point-to-point description Link to O2 Broadband ip address dhcp ip nat enable ip virtual-reassembly atm route-bridged ip pvc 0/101 oam-pvc manage encapsulation aal5snap
- Enable NAT port translation on nat-inside fa0/0 local LAN gateway interface and atm0/0/0.1 nat-outside
interface FastEthernet0/0 ip nat enable interface ATM0/0/0.1 point-to-point ip nat enable
- Catch traffic using access-list

- Enable NAT overload
