2. Configure ADSL for internet access

Create your Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line (ADSL) connection. Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) is always used over ADSL.

enable adsl=0

create atm=0 over=adsl0

add atm=0 channel=1

Branch 2 uses PPPoEoA (PPP over virtual ethernet over ATM). Create the virtual ethernet over ATM.

create eth=0 over=atm0.1

3. Configure PPP for PPPoE

Create your PPPoE link, and define the username and password needed for Internet access. This is provided by your Internet Service Provider (ISP). Use iprequest=on so that the interface obtains its address dynamically from the ISP—this office has no incoming roaming VPN clients so does not need a fixed address.

create ppp=0 over=eth0-any echo=10 lqr=off bap=off idle=off

set ppp=0 iprequest=on username="branch office 2" password=branch2

4. Configure IP

Enable IP

enable ip

Define the vlan1 interface address. This VLAN connects the router to the branch office LAN.

add ip int=vlan1 ip=192.168.142.254

The interface ppp0 (over virtual ethernet and ATM/ADSL) provides the Internet connection interface. Enable IP remote assignment, to allow your ISP to dynamically assign an IP address to ppp0.

enable ip remote

Configure a temporary null address.

add ip int=ppp0 ip=0.0.0.0

Add a default route out the ADSL PPP interface. When using PPP, it is valid to define a null value next hop.

add ip rou=0.0.0.0 mask=0.0.0.0 int=ppp0 next=0.0.0.0
