PPPoE
Point to Point Protocol over Ethernet (PPPoE) is a Layer 2 protocol which uses the PPP
(Point to Point) protocol to connect a client system to a server system over a one to
one network link. All traffic for a PPPoE connected client must go through the PPPoE
server to reach the client. A PPPoE server can therefore be used to route, NAT, firewall,
and perform QoS traffic shaping.
If a PPPoE server is used to distribute Internet access to subscribers, the Access Point
can be configured with a PPPoE username and password to authenticate with the
PPPoE server.
PPPoE is available only for the IPv4 connection type; PPPoE is not supported in IPv6
environments.
To set the IPv4 connection type to PPPoE
1.
Go to
Configuration > Internet
.
2.
Under
IPv4 Connection Type
, select
PPPoE
.
3.
Enter an
IPv4 Primary DNS Server
address.
Secondary DNS server
is optional.
4.
Enter a
PPPoE Username
.
5.
Enter a
PPPoE Password
.
6.
Retype the password in
PPPoE Password Confirmation
.

Configuring L2TP Connection Settings
You can implement transparent bridging with ZoneFlex through the use of L2TP (Layer
2 Tunneling Protocol) tunneling. By tunneling traffic from a ZoneFlex AP to a central-
ized data center, access controllers with policy enforcement software can apply rules
and services. In a typical WLAN implementation, these rules include a captive portal
to authenticate users’ credentials.
In the case of L2TP, the ZoneFlex AP functions as a remote bridge. As such, it forwards
traffic into PPP sessions over the L2TP tunnel. This implementation ensures that you
have complete visibility into MAC addresses of users, as individual Wi-Fi clients are
essentially placed (bridged) onto the ISP’s core network.
