Enabling PPPoE (Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet)
What is PPPoE
By using PPPoE, users can virtually "dial" from one machine to another over
an Ethernet network, establish a point to point connection between them and
then securely transport data packets over the connection.
On the equipment connected to the TracPhone terminal you must enter a few
settings for your PPPoE connection. For example you need to set up which
service to use and possibly a user name and password. For details, refer to
Using PPPoE (Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet) on page 73 and to the
documentation for your connected equipment.
On the TracPhone terminal you must enable PPPoE before you can establish a
PPPoE connection. Refer to the next section.
