I don't know about a HOW-TO, but the /usr/share/examples/ppp/ppp.conf.sample
has this snippet:
--------8<--snip--------
# ppp supports ppp over ethernet (PPPoE). Beware, many PPP servers cache
# the MAC address that connects to them, making it impossible to switch
# your PPPoE connection between machines.
#
# The current implementation requires Netgraph, so it doesn't work with
# OpenBSD or NetBSD.
#
# The client should be something like this:
#
--------8<--snip--------
# And the server should be running
#
# /usr/libexec/pppoed -p pppoe-in fxp0
#
# See rc.conf(5)
#
pppoe-in:
allow mode direct # Only for use on server-side
enable lqr proxy # Enable LQR and proxy-arp
enable chap pap passwdauth # Force client authentication
set ifaddr 10.0.0.1 10.0.0.100-10.0.0.199 # Hand out up to 100 IP numbers
accept dns # Allow DNS negotiation
--------8<--snip--------
the line you'll need to load up RADIUS for auth is in the same file.
also
man 8 pppoed
man 8 ppp
contain a ton of info.
