5.1.6 PPPOE CONFIGURATION
The protocol Point-to-Point over Ethernet is used for DSL communication with the DSLAM. That means the system
can connect directly with the carrier network and terminate VoIP traffic directly.
All necessary information for setup of the PPPoE connection is defined in the [
pppoe<x>] section. That means
username, password and authentication protocol are set here. The Ethernet interface is emac1 and the gateway
can also be defined. The parameter
PppoeIf defines the physical Ethernet interface used (always emac1). The
settings are entered as follows:
[pppoe<x>]
PppoeIf=emac1
User=<user>
Pwd=<pwd>
AuthProto=<pap|chap>
Route=<ip_gw>
(optional)
Bear in mind that configuration of the firewall, the NAT module and prioritization of the VoIP packets must be con-
sidered when routing voice and data through the DSL line.
Example: The following entry will create the interface
pppoe0, with the username user and the pass-
Table 5.5 Settings in the [pppoe<x>] Section of the ip.cfg
[pppoe<x>]
PppoeIf=<interface>
Enter the Ethernet interface used for the DSL connection (usually
emac1).
User=<username>
Enter the username used for DSL access.
Pwd=<password>
Enter the password used for DSL access.
AuthProto=<protocol>
Enter
chap or pap for the protocol used for authentication.
Route=<ip-addr> (optional)
Enter the target IP address range, e.g. 0.0.0.0 (default route). All packets that are not defined for the local
network will be sent through this interface. In this case, the parameter
DefaultGW in the System section
(Chapter 5.1.1 ) must remain empty. Only network ranges can be routed. The syntax in this case is
Route=<target range> -netmask <ip mask>. If several different network ranges are used, you
must enter the
Route parameter for each range.
