Prerequisites for Setting Up the PPPoE Client

Before you set up the PPPoE client, you must have done the following:

• Installed Solaris 8 Update 6 release or later releases on the client machines to use the PPPoE tunnel

• Contacted the service provider for information about its PPPoE access server

• Had the telephone company or service provider assemble the devices that are used by the client machines (DSL modem, splitter, and so forth), or assembled them yourself
