field select PPPoE and the PPPoE connection setup page is displayed; Figure 3.4 illustrates a typical PPPoE
configuration. Give your PPPoE connection a unique name; the name must not have spaces and cannot begin
with numbers. In this case the unique name is called PPPOE1. Select the encapsulation type (LLC or VC); if
you are not sure just use the default mode. Select the VPI and VCI settings; your DSL service provider or your
ISP will supply these; in this case the DSL service provider is using 0,30.
Following is a description of the different options:
1.
Username: The username for the PPPoE access; this is provided by your DSL service provider or
your ISP.
2.
Password: The password for the PPPoE access; this is provided by your DSL service provider or your
ISP.

On-Demand: Enables on-demand mode. The connection will disconnect if no activity is detected after
the specified idle timeout value.
4.
Idle Timeout: Specifies that PPPoE connection should disconnect if the link has no activity detected
for n seconds. This field is used in conjunction with the On-Demand feature. To ensure that the link
is always active, enter a 0 in this field.
5.
Keep Alive: When on-demand option is not enable, this value specifies the time to wait without being
connected to your provider before terminating the connection. To ensure that the link is always active,
enter a 0 in this field.
6.
Default Gateway: Specify this connection as the default-route.
7.
MRU: Maximum Receive Unit the DSL connection can receive. It is a negotiated value that asks the
provider to send packets of no more than n bytes. The maximum specified value is 1500 although
some DSL/ISP providers require a larger value. The minimum MRU value is 128.
8.
Enforce MRU: Check the box if you experience problems accessing the Internet over a PPPoE
connection. This feature will force all TCP traffic to conform with PPP MRU by changing TCP
Maximum Segment Size to PPP MRU.
9.
Debug: Enables PPPoE connection debugging facilities. Only for supporter.
