In addition, if the remote entry should be used only for PPPoE traffic, define it as
“PPPoE only” using this command:
-> remote setbroptions only on <remotename>
For a Dual-Ethernet router, an Ethernet interface can be designated as “PPPoE only”
using this command:
-> remote setbroptions pppoe only on <port#>
PPPoE Client
PPPoE configuration requires creation of a new remote router entry to serve as the
PPPoE client. The PPPoE client provides the user name, password, and domain
name required for each PPPoE session. In our router, we refer to the PPPoE domain
name as a “service name” as described later.
The user name and password can be the router name and password provided by the
system name and system passwd commands. Or a name and password can be
specified for the remote router entry using the remote setoursysname and remote
setourpasswd commands.
To create the entry, begin by entering these two commands:
-> remote add <remotename>
-> remote setpppoptions * <remotename>
The preceding two commands create a remote router entry that can be used to
connect to all PPPoE services. To create an entry for a specific PPPoE service, use
the following two commands:
-> remote add <remotename>
-> remote setpppoeservice <servicename> <remotename>
The service name is the domain name defined by your service provider.
After defining the remote entry with the remote add and remote setpppoeservice
commands, enter commands to:
• Turn off authentication of the remote router by the target router (remote
disauthen).
• •Specify the user name and password for the service (remote setoursysname
and remote setourpasswd).
• Define the IP route for the remote (remote addiproute). (IP routing must be
enabled for the Ethernet interface with eth ip enable.)
• Turn on Network Address Translation (NAT) if needed (remote
setiptranslate).
• Permanently allocate a channel or allocate a channel only when needed
(remote setminline).
