Syntax: aaa source-interface {ethernet | loopback} 0
ethernet 0

loopback 0
Selects the loopback 0 interface as source interface to AAA servers.
Description: When the Avici router connects to an AAA server, the AAA server records the time of the connection, the user name, and the IP address of the Avici router. The AAA server uses the IP address as the destination of acknowledgements and authorizations sent back to the Avici router. The aaa source-interface command enables the Avici router to change the IP address from the default to the address of the loopback 0 interface.
Use the aaa source-interface ethernet 0 command to select the ethernet 0 interface as the source interface.
Use the aaa source-interface loopback 0 command to select the loopback 0 interface source interface.
Factory Default: The source interface is the ethernet 0 interface.
Command Mode: Configuration.
Example: In the following example, the aaa source-interface loopback 0 command sets the loopback 0 interface as the source interface, and the show aaa command displays the setting:
router#configure terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
router(config)#aaa source-interface loopback 0
router(config)#end
router#show aaa
