Become superuser on the PPPoE client.
Add the name of the Ethernet interface with the DSL connection to the /etc/ppp/pppoe.if file.
For example, you add the following entry to /etc/ppp/pppoe.if for a PPPoE client that uses hme0 as the network interface that is connected to the DSL modem.
hme0 |
For more information about /etc/ppp/pppoe.if, go to /etc/ppp/pppoe.if File.
Configure the interface for PPPoE use.
# /etc/init.d/pppd start |
(Optional) Verify that the interface is now plumbed for PPPoE.
# /usr/sbin/sppptun query hme0:pppoe hme0:pppoed |
You can also use the /usr/sbin/sppptun command to manually plumb interfaces PPPoE. For instructions, refer to /usr/sbin/sppptun Command.
