http://www.qwest.com/dsl/customerservice/modemsupport.html would seem indicate that you need the Cisco 675 external. you can then run PPPoE (at least in theory) as it appears to be an ethernet to dsl bridge. I don't think any of the internal dsl cards are supported but if your supplier is doing it as PPPoE over dsl you should be fine with an external. --kit On Mon, Jan 29, 2001 at 12:21:22AM -0700, Matt Edwards wrote: > Perhaps I should clarify things just a bit sorry! :) > > First off the DSL Modem is an INTERNAL intel pro/dsl 2100. The connection is being provided via Qwest (AKA US West) via phone line. The NIC is the interface serving my local LAN. So essentially the plan is: Provide Internet Access via the DSL interface and route that access to the xl0 (NIC) interface (hence the need for DHCP on that one). Seems simple enough. Just don't know for sure how to get that darn DSL interface to connect. I suspect though that BSD is not loading the interface. Perhaps it is not a support piece of hardware or, more likely, I am just not loading the proper drivers upon boot up. (I apologize for the seemingly ignorant additude here, but I just started learning Unix only a month ago.). This brings forth another question: Would the fact that my KERNEL has no ATM support be the cause here?

I have had a fun time setting up my version of FreeBSD 4.2 to do just that. Learned alot. However, I have been unsuccessfull in my attempts! :( My system configuration is as follows, any help you can provide, be it more reference material or what ever, would be greatly appreciated! I have searched high and low for more documentation (I have only found these refrences: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?ppp , http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/pppoe.html , http://www.sympaticousers.org/faq/freebsd_howto.htm , http://www.freebsd.org/tutorials/ppp/ , unfortunately there are not alot of troubleshooting refrences to PPPoE here.) on PPPoE and as yet have been unsccessfull. > > I have configured my KERNAL with > options NETGRAPH > options NETGRAPH_ETHER > options NETGRAPH_PPPOE > options NETGRAPH_SOCKET > > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > my rc.conf file: > > # ---------------- OPTIONS > linux_enable="YES" > sendmail_enable="NO" > moused_enable="NO" > amd_enable="NO" > saver="blank" > # ---------------- TCP/IP OPTIONS > sshd_enable="YES" > inetd_enable="YES" > tcp_keepalive="YES" > gateway_enable="YES" > # ----------------- TCP/IP SETUP > hostname="everquest.matt.com" > network_interfaces="auto" > ifconfig_tun0= > ifconfig_xl0="inet 192.168.0.1 netmask 255.255.0.0" > # ----------------- ROUTING > router_enable="NO" > # ----------------- FIREWALL > firewall_enable="YES" > firewall_type="open" > # ----------------- NAT > # ----------------- DSL > # ----------------- DHCP > /sbin/dhcpstart xl0 > > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > my ppp.conf file: > > default: > set log Chat Command Connect TUN > nat enable yes > nat same_ports yes > nat use_sockets yes > enable dns > qwest: > set device PPPoE:xl0 > set mru 1492 > set mtu 1492 > set speed sync > enable lqr > set lqrperiod 5 > set cd 5 > set dial > set login > set timeout 0 > set authname usrname > set authkey authkey > accept chap > set ifaddr 10.0.0.1/0 10.0.0.2/0 255.255.255.0 0.0.0.0 > set openmode active > > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > my ppp.linkup file: > > qwest: > delete ALL > add 0 0 HISADDR > MYADDR: > add 0 0 HISADDR > > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > my ppp.log: > > Oct 20 08:13:20 everquest ppp[245]: Phase: Using interface: tun1 > Oct 20 08:13:20 everquest ppp[245]: Phase: deflink: Created in closed state > Oct 20 08:13:21 everquest ppp[245]: tun1: Command: default: nat enable yes > Oct 20 08:13:21 everquest ppp[245]: tun1: Command: default: nat same_ports yes > Oct 20 08:13:21 everquest ppp[245]: tun1: Command: default: nat use_sockets yes > Oct 20 08:13:21 everquest ppp[245]: tun1: Command: default: enable dns > Oct 20 08:13:21 everquest ppp[245]: tun1: Command: qwest: set device PPPoE:xl0 > Oct 20 08:13:21 everquest ppp[245]: tun1: Command: qwest: set mru 1492 > Oct 20 08:13:21 everquest ppp[245]: tun1: Command: qwest: set mtu 1492 > Oct 20 08:13:21 everquest ppp[245]: tun1: Command: qwest: set speed sync > Oct 20 08:13:21 everquest ppp[245]: tun1: Command: qwest: enable lqr > Oct 20 08:13:21 everquest ppp[245]: tun1: Command: qwest: set lqrperiod 5 > Oct 20 08:13:21 everquest ppp[245]: tun1: Command: qwest: set cd 5 > Oct 20 08:13:21 everquest ppp[245]: tun1: Command: qwest: set dial > Oct 20 08:13:21 everquest ppp[245]: tun1: Command: qwest: set login > Oct 20 08:13:21 everquest ppp[245]: tun1: Command: qwest: set timeout 0 > Oct 20 08:13:21 everquest ppp[245]: tun1: Command: qwest: set authname enichi > Oct 20 08:13:21 everquest ppp[245]: tun1: Command: qwest: set authkey ******** > Oct 20 08:13:21 everquest ppp[245]: tun1: Command: qwest: accept chap > Oct 20 08:13:21 everquest ppp[245]: tun1: Command: qwest: set ifaddr 10.0.0.1/0 10.0.0.2/0 255.255.255.0 0.0.0.0 > Oct 20 08:13:21 everquest ppp[245]: tun1: Command: qwest: set openmode active > Oct 20 08:13:21 everquest ppp[246]: tun1: Chat: deflink: Dial attempt 1 of 1 > Oct 20 08:13:26 everquest ppp[246]: tun1: Chat: Parent notified of failure > > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > command prompt results: > > everquest# ppp -background qwest > Working in background mode > Using interface: tun1 > Child failed (errdead) > everquest# > > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > I hope this is enough information. :) Whew!
