Advanced Configuration

IP Allocation Mode – This field specifies how IP adresses for the PPPoE tunnel are configured on the RJ-45 interface. The allocation mode depends on the type of service provided by the PPPoE server. If automatic mode is selected, DHCP is used to allocate the IP addresses for the PPPoE connection. If static addresses have been assigned to you by the service provider, you must manually enter the assigned addresses. (Default: Automatic)

Automatically allocated: IP addresses are dynamically assigned by the service provider during PPPoE session initialization.

Static assigned: Fixed addresses are assigned by the service provider for both the local and remote IP addresses.

Local IP Address – IP address of the local end of the PPPoE tunnel. (Must be entered for static IP allocation mode.)

Remote IP Address – IP address of the remote end of the PPPoE tunnel. (Must be entered for static IP allocation mode.)

CLI Commands for PPPoE – From the CLI configuration mode, use the interface ethernet command to access interface configuration mode. Use the ip pppoe command to enable PPPoE on the Ethernet interface. Use the other PPPoE commands shown in the example below to set a user name and password, IP settings, and other PPPoE parameters as required by the service provider. The pppoe restart command can then be used to start a new connection using the modified settings. To display the current PPPoE settings, use the show pppoe command from the Exec mode.
