PPPoE Settings for WAN1 Interface
Unnumber Interface Select the option to enable unnumbered mode. When this option is not
selected the router obtains an IP address from the ISP for the PPPoE
connection. Ensure that both ends of the PPPoE link are configured as
unnumbered.
IP Address Enter the local IP address for the PPPoE connection when Unnumbered
mode is enabled. An unnumbered interface borrows the LAN IP address
by default. The administrator can edit this and configure a custom IP
address on the unnumbered interface. The subnet mask for an
unnumbered interface is always 255.255.255.255.
User Name Enter the PPPoE username.
Password Enter the PPPoE password.
Authentication
Type
Select the authentication protocol (PAP, CHAP or PAP-CHAP) to be used
for authentication with the PPPoE server.
Service Name
(optional)
Enter the service name provided by the ISP.
Host Name
(optional)
Enter the host name of the PPPoE connection.
MTU Enter the MTU allowed for the PPPoE connect (preferred value 1492).
LCP Echo Select this option to enable/disable Link Control Protocol (LCP). This is
used to detect PPPoE Link Failures.
Interval (sec) Enter the time interval to send LCP Echo request from PPPoE client to
PPPoE server. The minimum value of this Interval is 10 seconds and the
maximum value is 90 seconds.
Maximum Failures Enter the number of Maximum Failures for the PPPoE connection. This is
the number of times for which LCP Echo requests from PPPoE client did
not get response from PPPoE server. After the number of failures cross
this value, the PPPoE session is disconnected. The minimum value for
failure is 2 seconds and maximum value is 10 seconds.
After entering all the information press the Apply button and the PPPoE Status is
displayed at the bottom of the screen. The administrator may Connect or Disconnect
using the appropriate button.
Caution: When NAT is enabled on an unnumbered interface, local services (such as
DNS Proxy, VPN etc) may be affected. To overcome this problem, configure one of the
Global IP addresses from the NAT pool as the unnumbered interface's IP address.
