2.
Set the maximum retry for PADI/PADR in the
Max Retry
field.
This sets an upper limit on the number of unanswered PADIs/PADRs sent by
the PPPoE client before the attempted session is reset. When the session is
reset, the retry-timer will go back to the configured value.
Note that max-retry value for PADR is not user configurable. Default max-retry
value for PADR is set to 5. After the fifth unanswered PADR, client starts
sending PADI again.
3.
Configure service name for PPPoE in the
Service Name
field.
The PPPoE Service selection feature uses service names to enable a PPPoE
server to offer PPPoE clients a selection of services during call setup. The
client chooses one of the services offered, and the service is provided when
the PPPoE session becomes active.
Note:
- The PPPoE service name configured on OmniAccess 5740 USG should match the
service name
configured on the server.
- If the “service-name” is not configured, then the PPPoE client accepts any service
offered by the PPPoE server.
- Maximum length of the service name is 50 characters.
Step 2:
After configuring the required parameters, click
Apply
to save the PPPoE
configuration on the FE interface.

3.
On some links, it may be desirable to require a peer to authenticate itself before
allowing network-layer protocol packets to be exchanged. To enable this
authentication, PPP supports authentication protocols such as PAP, CHAP, EAP
(CHAP - Challenge Authentication Protocol, PAP - Password Authentication
Protocol, EAP - Extensible Authentication Protocol). Authentication is not
mandatory.
Set the authentication protocol for authenticating the peer by selecting the option
from
PPP Authentication
drop-down list:
Chap/Pap/Eap/None
