You can configure any FortiGate interface to acquire its IP address from a DHCP or
PPPoE server. Your ISP may provide IP addresses using one of these protocols.
To use the FortiGate DHCP server, you need to configure an IP address range and
default route for the server. No configuration information is required for interfaces that
are configured to use DHCP.
PPPoE requires you to supply a user name and password. In addition, PPPoE
unnumbered configurations require you to supply an IP address. Use
record the information you require for your PPPoE configuration.
