Figure 48: Editing a PPPoE Interface

This menus allows you to edit a PPPoE interface.

The PPPoE Username field determines the username to use when connecting to the PPPoE server as specified by your provider.

The Password field determines the password provided to the PPPoE server.

The Default Route checkbox enables automatically setting a default route using this interface whenever it connects. If this is your primary connection you probably want this option enabled.

The Use peer DNS checkbox enables automatically setting the DNS server entries that the PPPoE server recommends. Enable this option unless you provide your own name servers.

The MTU field defines the MTU size to request when connecting to the PPPoE server. In some cases the PPPoE provider may provide a smaller MTU in which case the smaller setting will be used, or it may refuse to alter the MTU and use whatever it considers to be the default.

The Save button will update all of the changes. The current PPPoE link will be connected.

The Delete button will delete the PPPoE interface, closing the current PPPoE link.
