24.2.2.2 PPPoE Encapsulation
Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet (PPPoE) functions as a dial-up connection. PPPoE is an
IETF (Internet Engineering Task Force) standard specifying how a host personal computer
interacts with a broadband modem (for example DSL, cable, wireless, etc.) to achieve access
to high-speed data networks.

DESCRIPTION
You must choose the Ethernet option when the WAN port is used as a regular
Ethernet. Otherwise, choose PPPoE or PPTP for a dial-up connection.
Select Dynamic If your ISP did not assign you a fixed IP address. This is the
default selection.
Select Static If the ISP assigned a fixed IP address.
The fields below are available only when you select Static.
Enter your WAN IP address in this field.
Enter the IP subnet mask in this field.
Enter the gateway IP address in this field.
Enter the DNS server's IP address(es) in the field(s) to the right.
Leave the field as 0.0.0.0 if you do not want to configure DNS servers. If you do not
configure a DNS server, you must know the IP address of a machine in order to
access it.
