5.7.6 PPPOE
PPPoE (Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet) allows a point-to-point connection
while using Ethernet. Just like the dial up protocol on which it is based, PPPoE
uses traditional user name and password authentication to establish a direct
connection between two Ethernet devices on a network (such as your RLXIC-EV
and your computer or router).
Application examples for PPPoE with your RLXIC-EV:
 Backup connectivity solution for your network.
 Individualized Internet connection on a LAN.
 Password restricted Internet connection.
Only one computer, router, or other network device at a time can connect to the
RLXIC-EV using PPPoE. If you are using the RLXIC-EV connected to a router as
a back up Internet connection for your network, you should configure the router
to use the PPPoE connection and not the individual computers.
Tip: You may need to use Private Mode to configure the IP address of your RLXIC-EV to be
available on a LAN.
Note: To configure a PPPoE connection on Microsoft Windows XP, 2000 or NT, you will need
administrator privileges to the computer you are configuring or access granted by an administrator
on the network to add/remove devices to your computer.
