10.6 PPPoE/PPTP Interfaces
This section introduces PPPoE, PPTP, and PPPoE/PPTP interfaces and then explains the
screens for PPPoE/PPTP interfaces.
10.6.1 PPPoE/PPTP Overview
Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet (PPPoE, RFC 2516) and Point-to-Point Tunneling
Protocol (PPTP, RFC 2637) are usually used to connect two computers over phone lines or
broadband connections.

DESCRIPTION
Click this if you want the ZyWALL to assign static IP addresses to computers.
The Static DHCP screen appears.
Figure 137 Network > Interface > Edit > Edit static DHCP table
The ZyWALL checks this table when it assigns IP addresses. If the computer's
MAC address is in the table, the ZyWALL assigns the corresponding IP
address. Otherwise, the ZyWALL assigns the IP address dynamically using the
IP Pool Start Address and Pool Size.
Note: You must click OK in the Static DHCP screen and then
click OK in this screen to save your changes.
The interface can regularly ping the gateway you specified to make sure it is still
available. You specify how often the interface pings the gateway, how long to
wait for a response before the attempt is a failure, and how many consecutive
failures are required before the ZyWALL stops routing to the gateway. The
ZyWALL resumes routing to the gateway the first time the gateway
acknowledges the ping.
Select this to enable the ping check.
Enter the number of seconds between ping attempts.
Enter the number of seconds to wait for a response before the attempt is a
failure.
Enter the number of consecutive failures before the ZyWALL stops routing
through the gateway.
Select this to ping the default gateway.
Select this to ping a specified domain name or IP address. Enter that domain
name or IP address in the field next to it.
