Cisco 877 TPG Config
Well, TPG uses PPPoE rather than PPPoA like most ISP, and there were a few issues with the MSS before my TPG was working correctly. Now it runs like a dream, no complaints at all.
I'll post the relevant sections below
config working on IOS 12.4(24)T3
replace [username] with your TPG username and [password] with your TPG password.

Thanks Narkotix for correcting a mistake with the dns server config.

Hi Dave,
I am a bit of a newbie.
Is there a link you cant point me to that outlines the process of downloading to a router a config and activating and saving that config on the router?
Thanks heaps

there you go bud.
I might write an article for this when I get a chance, I get alot of EE questions about it.
I find setting up a tftpserver, copy the config over, edit in notepad++ and then recopy the config to the router as startup-config and reload. – at least for the first config load on a new router.
of course this means if you make a mistake, you may not be able to get back into the router, so have a console cable handy.
otherwise, when you get more proficient at modifying config, you can do this live.

Thanks for a working script – saved me lots of time debugging TPG’s configs.

You’re most welcome
Feel free to submit any ammendments and I’ll append them to the post

Thanks for a great config. I know a couple of mates use it.
Unfortunately my 877 had a dead ADSL port. The CD light just flashes, but it doesn’t sync.
Because of this, I was thinking about using a cheapy adsl modem in bridged mode, then using on of the FE ports connected to my 877.
Is it possible to have the PPPoE config and all that other stuff outside if the dialer interface? Or is that the only WAN interface that I would be able to implement the commands on?

sure can… the basics of it are to assign a vlan to an fe port (connected to the dsl modem), and assign a pppoe dialer to that vlan.
i.e.
vlan 5
name pppoevl
int fe3
switchport access vlan 5
int vlan 5
ip address dhcp !not really needed, but will help in configuring your dsl modem
pppoe enable group global
pppoe-client dial-pool-number 1

oh – and you know you can purchase a smartnet contract for it and claim a month later right?

I never even thought of that! Where do you get your contracts from?… Weighing it up, it might be cheaper to buy another 877 off ebay again.
Thanks for replying!

Hi Dave,
I’m new to cisco products and have used the above config and the dialer is getting the static tpg address so it’s connected and I can ping google from the console but after I then plug in a laptop and get the deco address I can not get to the Internet.
The tracert to google gets as far as 10.10.10.1 and then stops there how do I get this to work?
Any help would be massively appreciated this is my third day at it and your advice has been the most helpful sofar.
Regards
Dan
