interface dsl 0/0

Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line (ADSL) and VDSL (Very high-speed DSL) are popular WAN access technologies using copper wire pairs.

On appropriate hardware variants of the device, this command defines the physical properties of the ADSL/VDSL interface.

Once the physical layer is configured:

For ADSL, proceed to ATM interfaces using the command interface atm.
For VDSL, proceed to configure EFM using the command interface efm.
The DSL interface automatically detects the signal on the interface and based on the signal it chooses the DLS mode (ADSL or VDSL).
