APPENDIX E

PPPoE: Point to Point Protocol over
Ethernet

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 username and
password authentication to establish a direct connection between two Ethernet devices on a net-
work (such as your

Raven X

and your computer or router).

Application examples for PPPoE with your

Raven X

:

Backup connectivity solution for your network

Password restricted Internet connection

Individualized Internet connection on a LAN

PPPoE (PPP over Ethernet) Configuration

To configure a PPPoE connection on Microsoft Windows XP, 2000 or NT, you will need adminis-
trator privileges to the computer you are configuring or access granted by an administrator on the
network to add/remove devices to your computer.

Configuring your Raven X for PPPoE

a. Click the Connect button and select UDP. Enter the IP address and password (the default IP
is 192.168.13.31 and the default password is 12345).

You only need to configure a PPPoE connection on your computer if you will be
connecting from the computer to the

Raven X

on a LAN sharing the same subnet.

You may need to use Private Mode in the modem to configure its IP address to be
available on the LAN.

Note:

If you are using the

Raven X

connected to a router as a back up Internet con-

nection for your network, you should configure the router to use the PPPoE con-
nection and not the individual computers. Only one computer, router, or other
network device at a time can connect to the

Raven X

using PPPoE.

1.

Connect your

Raven X

directly to your computer or to a hub to which your computer is also con-

nected .
