It appeared in 1999, +in the context of the boom of DSL as the solution for tunneling packets +over the DSL connection to the :abbr:`ISPs (Internet Service Providers)` +IP network, and from there to the rest of the Internet. A 2005 networking +book noted that "Most DSL providers use PPPoE, which provides authentication, +encryption, and compression." Typical use of PPPoE involves leveraging the +PPP facilities for authenticating the user with a username and password, +predominately via the PAP protocol and less often via CHAP. + +*************** +Operating Modes +*************** + +VyOS supports setting up PPPoE in two different ways to a PPPoE internet +connection. This is due to most ISPs provide a modem that is also a wireless +router. + +Home Users +========== + +In this method, the DSL Modem/Router connects to the ISP for you with your +credentials preprogrammed into the device. This gives you an :rfc:`1918` +address, such as ``192.168.1.0/24`` by default. + +For a simple home network using just the ISP's equipment, this is usually +desirable. But if you want to run VyOS as your firewall and router, this +will result in having a double NAT and firewall setup. This results in a +few extra layers of complexity, particularly if you use some NAT or +tunnel features. + +Business Users +============== + +In order to have full control and make use of multiple static public IP +addresses, your VyOS will have to initiate the PPPoE connection and control +it. In order for this method to work, you will have to figure out how to make +your DSL Modem/Router switch into a Bridged Mode so it only acts as a DSL +Transceiver device to connect between the Ethernet link of your VyOS and the +phone cable. Once your DSL Transceiver is in Bridge Mode, you should get no +IP address from it. Please make sure you connect to the Ethernet Port 1 if +your DSL Transeiver has a switch, as some of them only work this way. + +Once you have an Ethernet device connected, i.e. `eth0`, then you can +configure it to open the PPPoE session for you and your DSL Transceiver +(Modem/Router) just acts to translate your messages in a way that +vDSL/aDSL understands. + +************* +Configuration +************* + +Common interface configuration +============================== + +.. cmdinclude:: ../_include/interface-description.txt + :var0: pppoe + :var1: pppoe0 + +.. cmdinclude:: ../_include/interface-disable.txt + :var0: pppoe + :var1: pppoe0 + +.. cmdinclude:: ../_include/interface-vrf.txt + :var0: pppoe + :var1: pppoe0 + +PPPoE options +============= + +.. cfgcmd:: set interfaces pppoe <interface> access-concentrator <name> + + Use this command to restrict the PPPoE session on a given access + concentrator. Normally, a host sends a PPPoE initiation packet to start the + PPPoE discovery process, a number of access concentrators respond with offer + packets and the host selects one of the responding access concentrators to + serve this session. + + This command allows you to select a specific access concentrator when you + know the access concentrators `<name>`. + +.. cfgcmd:: set interfaces pppoe <interface> authentication user <username> + + Use this command to set the username for authenticating with a remote PPPoE + endpoint. Authentication is optional from the system's point of view but + most service providers require it. + +.. cfgcmd:: set interfaces pppoe <interface> authentication password <password> + + Use this command to set the password for authenticating with a remote PPPoE + endpoint. Authentication is optional from the system's point of view but + most service providers require it. + +.. cfgcmd:: set interfaces pppoe <interface> connect-on-demand + + When set the interface is enabled for "dial-on-demand". + + Use this command to instruct the system to establish a PPPoE connections + automatically once traffic passes through the interface. A disabled on-demand + connection is established at boot time and remains up. If the link fails for + any reason, the link is brought back up immediately. + + Enabled on-demand PPPoE connections bring up the link only when traffic needs + to pass this link. If the link fails for any reason, the link is brought + back up automatically once traffic passes the interface again. If you + configure an on-demand PPPoE connection, you must also configure the idle + timeout period, after which an idle PPPoE link will be disconnected. A + non-zero idle timeout will never disconnect the link after it first came up. + +.. cfgcmd:: set interfaces pppoe <interface> default-route + + Use this command to specify whether to automatically add a default route + pointing to the endpoint of the PPPoE when the link comes up. The default + route is only added if no other default route already exists in the system. + + **default:** A default route to the remote endpoint is automatically added + when the link comes up (i.e. auto). + +.. cfgcmd:: set interfaces pppoe <interface> idle-timeout <time> + + Use this command to set the idle timeout interval to be used with on-demand + PPPoE sessions. When an on-demand connection is established, the link is + brought up only when traffic is sent and is disabled when the link is idle + for the interval specified. + + If this parameter is not set or 0, an on-demand link will not be taken down + when it is idle and after the initial establishment of the connection. It + will stay up forever. + +.. cfgcmd:: set interfaces pppoe <interface> local-address <address> + + Use this command to set the IP address of the local endpoint of a PPPoE + session. If it is not set it will be negotiated. + +.. cfgcmd:: set interfaces pppoe <interface> mtu <mtu> + + Configure :abbr:`MTU (Maximum Transmission Unit)` on given `<interface>`.

If it is not set it will be negotiated. + +.. cfgcmd:: set interfaces pppoe <interface> service-name <name> + + Use this command to specify a service name by which the local PPPoE interface + can select access concentrators to connect with.

If you wish to use a dual WAN connection, + change the ``default-route`` option to ``force``. +* With the ``name-server`` option set to ``none``, VyOS will ignore the + nameservers your ISP sens you and thus you can fully rely on the ones you + have configured statically. + +.. note:: Syntax has changed from VyOS 1.2 (crux) and it will be automatically + migrated during an upgrade. + +.. code-block:: none + + set interfaces pppoe pppoe0 default-route 'auto' + set interfaces pppoe pppoe0 mtu 1492 + set interfaces pppoe pppoe0 authentication user 'userid' + set interfaces pppoe pppoe0 authentication password 'secret' + set interfaces pppoe pppoe0 source-interface 'eth0' + + +You should add a firewall to your configuration above as well by +assigning it to the pppoe0 itself as shown here: + +.. code-block:: none + + set interfaces pppoe pppoe0 firewall in name NET-IN + set interfaces pppoe pppoe0 firewall local name NET-LOCAL + set interfaces pppoe pppoe0 firewall out name NET-OUT + +VLAN Example +============ + +Some recent ISPs require you to build the PPPoE connection through a VLAN +interface.
