PPPoE: Point to Point Protocol over Ethernet

Configuring your router for PPPoE with the PinPoint-E

If your network router has PPPoE discovery, the

PinPoint-E

will be discovered on the intranet

through PPPoE discovery process, which uses broadcast Ethernet packets. Once found, the

Pin-

Point-E

can be designated as the primary or failover connection.

Your network router should be configured to make a PPPoE connection using the username and
password configured with *HOSTUID and *HOSTPW, and the service name configured with
*MODEMNAME (optional). It should also be configured to re-route packets through the connec-
tion with the

PinPoint-E

.
