IP Address
Enter the local IP address for the PPPoE connection when Unnumbered
mode is enabled. An unnumbered interface borrows the LAN IP address
by default. The administrator can edit this and configure a custom IP
address on the unnumbered interface. The subnet mask for an
unnumbered interface is always 255.255.255.255.
User Name
Enter the PPPoE username.
Password
Enter the PPPoE password.
Authentication

Select the authentication protocol (
PAP, CHAP or PAP-CHAP

Enter the host name of the PPPoE connection.
MTU

LCP Echo
Select this option to enable/disable Link Control Protocol (LCP). This is
used to detect PPPoE Link Failures.

PPPoE server. The minimum value of this Interval is 10 seconds and the
maximum value is 90 seconds.
Maximum Failures
Enter the number of Maximum Failures for the PPPoE connection. This is
the number of times for which LCP Echo requests from PPPoE client did
not get response from PPPoE server. After the number of failures cross
this value, the PPPoE session is disconnected. The minimum value for
failure is 2 seconds and maximum value is 10 seconds.
After entering all the information press the
Apply
button and the
PPPoE Status
is
displayed at the bottom of the screen. The administrator may
Connect or Disconnect
using the appropriate button.

Caution:
When NAT is enabled on an unnumbered interface, local services (such as
DNS Proxy) may be affected. To overcome this problem, configure one of the Global
IP addresses from the NAT pool as the unnumbered interface's IP address.
Option to choose DMZ / Ethernet WAN
DRO-220i users can use the same physical port as DMZ or Ethernet WAN, called
WAN3. User can check the option he/she wants. After checking the proper option i.e.
DMZ or Ethernet WAN, the physical port will behave in that manner. For example, if
currently the port is working as DMZ port, and then user can check the option of Ethernet
WAN and click on Apply Button. After clicking on Apply button, the port will start
behaving as Ethernet WAN. It works vice versa too.
