PPPoE
Access Concentrator: A PPPoE tag that identifies a remote access concentrator (or
PPPoE server). PPPoE will only connect to the named access concentrator. If no
concentrator tag is set, PPPoE connects to the first access concentrator that responds.
The tag name/number is determined by your ISP.
Service Name: A PPPoE tag that identifies a specific service that is acceptable to the
PPPoE client. If set, the PPPoE transport will connect to the first access concentrator it
finds that uses this service. If an access concentrator is also set, the PPPoE transport will
connect to the specified service on the named concentrator. The service name is
determined by your ISP.
Server: Dial-in status.
Create Route: This setting specifies whether a route is added to the system after IPCP
(Internet Protocol Control Protocol) negotiation is completed. If set to enabled, a route will
be created which directs packets to the remote end of the PPP link.
Specific Route: Specifies whether the route created when a PPP link comes up is a
specific or default route. If set to enabled, the route created will only apply to packets for
the subnet at the remote end of the PPP link. The address of this subnet is obtained
during IPCP negotiation.
Subnetmask: sets the subnet mask used for the local IP interface connected to the PPP
transport. If the value 0.0.0.0 is supplied, the netmask will be calculated from the class of
the IP address obtained during IPCP negotiation.
Routemask: Sets the subnet mask used by the route that is created when a PPP link
comes up. If it is set to 0.0.0.0, the subnet mask is determined by the IP address of the
remote end of the link. The class of the IP address is obtained during IPCP (Internet
Protocol Control Protocol) negotiation.
Hdlc: This setting allows you to enable/disable whether your system can transmit and
receive packets containing HDLC headers. If you want LLC packets to be transmitted and
received instead of/as well as HDLC packets.
