Configuring PPPoE Access

PPPoE (Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet) is a specification for connecting users on an Ethernet to the Internet or intranet through a common broadband medium, such as a single DSL line, wireless device, or cable modem. PPPoE combines the Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP), commonly used in dialup connections, with the Ethernet protocol, which supports multiple users in a local area network. The PPP protocol information is encapsulated within an Ethernet frame.

The PPPoE Manager is available from the desktop to configure and invoke PPPoE connection to WAN. Once connected, all WAN packets are though a PPP connection over Ethernet to the DSL modem. The PPPoE Manager is not accessible for users with sign-on privilege set to None.

Selecting PPPoE Manager in the Desktop menu opens the PPPoE Manager dialog box. The PPPoE Manager dialog box can also be set to open automatically on thin client start as described in "Configuring Network Settings."
