Using PPPoE (Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet)
Overview
You can establish a PPPoE connection to the BGAN network using the
TracPhone system. Use PPPoE if you want to control your connection
independently of the web interface and the IP handset.
Possible applications are:
•
Connecting a router
•
Connecting broadcast equipment, optionally through a PC
•
Establishing a Picocell for the use of cell phones
The following drawing shows connections managed through PPPoE and web
interface respectively.
