1.11. PPPoE configuration
The SPECTRE cellular router does not support the PPPoE configuration option.
PPPoE (Point-to-Point over Ethernet) is a network protocol where PPP frames are
encapsulated in Ethernet frames. The PPPoE feature in the SPECTRE RT industrial router
operates in client mode. The router will connect to a PPPoE server or a PPPoE bridge device
such as an ADSL modem.
To enter the PPPoE configuration, select the
PPPoE
menu item. If the
Create PPPoE
connection
option is selected, the router will attempt to establish a PPPoE connection on power
up. The PPPoE client will connect to devices that support either a PPPoE bridge or a PPPoE
server. After a PPPoE connection is established, the router obtains the IP address of the PPPoE
Server device and all communications from the device are forwarded to the industrial router.
