Thank you for your reply.
I think comment statement in /etc/defaults/rc.conf should be changed
because the current comment means '-l'. Otherwise we should change
/etc/rc.network. Don't you think so?
-------------- /etc/defaults/rc.conf ----------
pppoed_provider="service-pppoe" # Provider and ppp(8) config file entry.
