Configuring PPPoE Interfaces

To configure properties on a PPPoE interface:

In the J-Web user interface, select Configure > Interfaces.
A list of the network interfaces present on the device is displayed, as shown in Figure 1. The third column indicates whether the interface has been configured.
Select pp0.
The PPPoE Interfaces configuration main page is displayed, as shown in Figure 12.
Figure 12: PPPoE Interfaces Configuration Main Page
Enter information into the configuration pages, as described in Table 16.
On the PPPoE Interfaces configuration main page, click one of the following buttons:
- To apply the configuration and stay on the PPPoE configuration main page, click Apply.
- To apply the configuration and return to the configuration page, click OK.
- To cancel your entries and return to the Interfaces configuration page, click Cancel.
To verify that the PPPoE interface is configured correctly, see the JUNOS Enhanced Services Interfaces and Routing Configuration Guide.

Field	Function	Your Action
Logical Interfaces
Logical Interfaces	Lists the logical interfaces for the PPPoE physical interface.	To add a logical interface, click Add. To edit a logical interface, select the interface from the list. To delete a logical interface, select the check box next to the name and click Delete.
Add logical interfaces	Defines one or more logical units that you connect to this physical PPPoE interface. You must define at least one logical unit for a PPPoE interface.	Click Add.
Logical Interface Description	(Optional) Describes the logical interface.	Type a text description of the logical interface to more clearly identify it in monitoring displays.
IPv4 Addresses and Prefixes	Specifies one or more IPv4 addresses for the interface.	Click Add. Type one or more IPv4 addresses and prefixes. For example: 10.10.10.10/24 Click OK.
Physical Interface Description	(Optional) Adds supplementary information about the physical PPPoE interface.	Type a text description of the PPPoE interface to more clearly identify it in monitoring displays.
PPP Options
Enable CHAP	Enables or disables CHAP authentication on a PPPoE interface.	To enable CHAP, select the check box. To disable CHAP, clear the check box.
CHAP Local Identity (available if CHAP is enabled)
Use System Host Name	Specifies that the PPPoE interface uses the device's system hostname in CHAP challenge and response packets.	To enable, select the check box (the default). To disable, clear the check box.
Local Name	If Use System Host Name is disabled, specifies the local name for CHAP to use.	Type a local name for this PPPoE interface.
CHAP Peer Identity (required if CHAP is enabled)	Identifies the client or peer with which the device communicates on this PPPoE interface.	Type the CHAP client name.
CHAP Secret (required if CHAP is enabled)	Specifies the secret password for CHAP authentication, known to both sides of the connection.	Type a password that is known to the other side of the connection. Use a combination of letters and numbers that is difficult for others to guess.
PPPoE Options
Access Concentrator	Identifies the access concentrator by a unique name.	Type a name for the access concentrator; for example, ispl.com.
Auto Reconnect Time	Specifies the number of seconds to wait before reconnecting after a PPPoE session is terminated.	Type a value from 1 through 4294947295 for automatic reconnection; for example, 100 seconds. Type 0 (the default) for immediate reconnection.
Idle Timeout	Specifies the number of seconds a session can be idle without disconnecting.	Type a value for the timeout. Type 0 if you do not want the session to time out.
Service Name	Identifies the type of service provided by the access concentrator, such as the name of the Internet service provider (ISP), class, or quality of service.	Type the type of service provided by the access concentrator; for example, video@ispl.com.
Underlying Interface	Specifies the logical Ethernet interface or the logical ATM interface as the underlying interface for the PPPoE session.	From the list, select the underlying interface for the PPPoE session; for example, ge-0/0/1.0 or at-2/0/0.0.
