2.3.5 PPPoE Dialing Failure
Symptom
When you obtain IP address through Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet (PPPoE), the
dialing fails.
Cause
The failure may be caused by network disconnection, invalid user name or password, or false
login information after a fault occurs and the PPPoE server restarts.
Solution
1.
Check whether the network is disconnected. For details, see
2.
Run the
display ipaddress
command to view the IP address obtaining mode. Ensure that
the PPPoE mode is adopted.

...
The preceding information indicates that the IP address obtaining mode is static IP
address. Run the
ipaddress pppoe
command in the global configuration mode to enable
the PPPoE dialing mode, and then run the
pppoe
user name
password
password
command
to set the user name and password.
3.
Run the following command to check whether the PPPoE is online. If the PPPoE is
offline, check the correctness of the user name and password.

4.
If the IAD is reset by accident or restarted because the power is off, the users may still be
in online state in the PPPoE server. If you try to dial a number before the account times
out and drops offline, the dial fails. You can wait for a few minutes before redial the
number.
