Configure Remote Site Profiles for PPPoE

Remote Site Profiles allow for the router to be configured to support

PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE) client on the router. The PPPoE feature

on the Perle routers provide a PPPoE client support on Ethernet

interfaces to a bridging DSL modem to the Internet. This feature will

create a PPP tunnel to an ISP located somewhere on the ATM network

side of the xDSL modem. This feature eliminates the hassle and

potential error of running a PPPoE client on each LAN workstation

that requires Internet access.
The following steps must be performed in order for the router to be

configured for PPPoE connection. The remote site set-up for the

PPPoE should refer to the section for Configure Remote Site Profiles

for Leased Line PPP as the initial guideline for setting up a remote site

configuration for PPP. Afterwards the following steps transform the

PPP remote site connection to a unique PPPoE remote site

configuration.

The Auto-Call field will be automatically setup to be enabled when a

LAN interface is selected as the primary link. This will allow the

PPPoE connection to be established automatically upon boot-up of the

router.
