PPPoE
Since many Internet Service Providers (ISP) use Point‐to‐Point Protocol over Ethernet (PPPoE) to
establish communications with end users, the access point includes a built‐in client for this
protocol. You can configure the access point to support PPPoE as an authentication method to
establish communications with end users.
Using Web Management
Select PPPoE Settings from the menu.

Username: The username assigned by your service provider for the PPPoE tunnel. The range is
1 to 63 alphanumeric characters.
•
Password: The password assigned by your service provider for the PPPoE tunnel. The range is
1 to 63 alphanumeric characters.
•
Service Name: The service name assigned by your service provider for the PPPoE. The service

•
IP Allocation Mode: Specifies how IP addresses for the PPPoE tunnel are configured on the RJ‐
45 interface. The allocation mode depends on the type of service you have purchased from the
ISP. If Automatically allocated is selected, DHCP is used to allocate the IP addresses for the
PPPoE connection. If static addresses have been assigned to you by the ISP, you must
manually enter the assigned addresses. The default setting is Automatically allocated.
