ration menu; otherwise, press the Home button, and then

peer, and then uses the MAC address in combination
with a session ID to uniquely identify the session.
b Observe the messages and events associated with the
PPPoE login process in the Status Bar, the Message
Log and the IP Config result category. For a list of

send PPP echoes and replies to keep the session estab-
lished.
