Configuring a Virtual Template Interface

To create and configure a virtual template interface, enter the following commands beginning in global
configuration mode:

Example 3-4

Configuring a Virtual Template Interface

interface virtual-template 1

ip unnumbered Loopback1

no peer default ip address

ppp authentication chap vpn1

ppp ipcp ip address required

ppp authorization vpn1

ppp accounting vpn1

Monitoring and Maintaining a Virtual Access Interface

When a virtual template interface is applied dynamically to an incoming user session, a virtual access
interface (VAI) is created. You cannot use the command line interface (CLI) to directly create or
configure a VAI, but you can display and clear the VAI by using the following commands in privileged
EXEC mode:

Example 3-5

Displaying the Active VAI Configuration

Router# show interfaces virtual-access 1.1 configuration

!

interface virtual-access1.1

ip vrf forwarding vrf-1

ip unnumbered Loopback1

no ip proxy-arp

Command

Purpose

Step 1

Router(config)# interface virtual-template

number

Creates a virtual template interface and enters interface
configuration mode.

Step 2

Router(config)# ip unnumbered ethernet

number

Enables IP without assigning a specific IP address on the LAN.

Step 3

Router(config-if)# ppp authentication chap

Enables PPP authentication on the virtual template interface.

Step 4

Router(config-if)# ppp ipcp ip address

required

Required for legacy dial up and DSL networks. Prevents a PPP
session from being set up with 0.0.0.0 remote ip address.

Command

Purpose

Router# show interfaces virtual-access number

[configuration]

Displays the configuration of the active VAI that was created using
a virtual template interface.

The configuration keyword restricts output to configuration
information.

Router# clear interface virtual-access number

Tears down the live sessions and frees the memory for other client
uses.
