PPPoE
DESCRIPTION
The PPPoE choice is for a dial-up connection using PPPoE. The router supports
PPPoE (Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet). PPPoE is an IETF Draft standard
(RFC 2516) specifying how a personal computer (PC) interacts with a broadband
modem (i.e. xDSL, cable, wireless, etc.) connection. Operationally, PPPoE saves
significant effort for both the end user and ISP/carrier, as it requires no specific
configuration of the broadband modem at the customer site. By implementing
PPPoE directly on the router rather than individual computers, the computers on the
LAN do not need PPPoE software installed, since the router does that part of the
task. Further, with NAT, all of the LAN's computers will have access.
Type the PPPoE service name provided to you. PPPoE uses a service name to
identify and reach the PPPoE server.
Type the user name given to you by your ISP.
Type the password associated with the User Name above.
Type your password again to make sure that you have entered it correctly.
Select Nailed-Up Connection if you do not want the connection to time out.
This value specifies the time in seconds that elapses before the router automatically
disconnects from the PPPoE server.
Click Apply to save your changes back to the ZyXEL device.
Click Reset to begin configuring this screen afresh.
