This menu allows you to see all the connected users, as well as to set static interface names to be
used in different configurations, where unchangable interface needs to be specified (and, thus,
dynamic names cannot be used)
Property Description
encoding ( read-only: text ) - encryption and encoding (if asymmetric, separated with '/') being
used in this connection
name ( name ) - interface name
remote-address ( read-only: MAC address ) - MAC address of the connected client
service-name ( name ) - name of the service the user is connected to
uptime ( time ) - shows how long the client is connected
user ( name ) - the name of the connected user (must be present in the user darabase anyway)
Example
To view the currently connected users:
[admin@MikroTik] interface pppoe-server> print
Flags: R - running
# NAME SERVICE REMOTE-ADDRESS USER ENCO... UPTIME
0
R
<pppoe-ex>
ex
00:C0:CA:16:16:A5
ex
12s
[admin@MikroTik] interface pppoe-server>
To disconnect the user ex:
[admin@MikroTik] interface pppoe-server> remove [find user=ex]
[admin@MikroTik] interface pppoe-server> print
[admin@MikroTik] interface pppoe-server>
Application Examples
PPPoE in a multipoint wireless 802.11g network
In a wireless network, the PPPoE server may be attached to an Access Point (as well as to a regular
station of wireless infrastructure). Either our RouterOS client or Windows PPPoE clients may
connect to the Access Point for PPPoE authentication. Further, for RouterOS clients, the radio
interface may be set to MTU 1600 so that the PPPoE interface may be set to MTU 1500. This
optimizes the transmission of 1500 byte packets and avoids any problems associated with MTUs
lower than 1500. It has not been determined how to change the MTU of the Windows wireless
interface at this moment.
Let us consider the following setup where the MikroTik Wireless AP offers wireless clients
transparent access to the local network with authentication:
