Just to add to what Julian and Bjoern said .. something about addressing / routing looks maybe odd to me, without knowing your network setup or much at all about vlans. Adding both lcp and ipcp to ppp logging should confirm success (or indicate problems) at those levels. > set ifaddr 217.65.168.254/32 > > Oct 19 20:05:33 vdsl02a ppp[2234]: Command: default: set ifaddr 217.65.168.254/32 > > Oct 19 20:05:36 vdsl02a ppp[2234]: Phase: IP 217.65.167.1 > > Oct 19 20:05:36 vdsl02a ppp[2234]: Phase: Route: 217.65.167.64/29 217.65.167.1 1 Does that all look right? > > Oct 19 20:05:36 vdsl02a ppp[2234]: Warning: iface add: ioctl(SIOCAIFADDR, 217.65.168.254 -> 217.65.167.1): File exists >From memory, 'File exists' means more like 'route exists' > > Oct 19 20:05:36 vdsl02a ppp[2234]: Phase: deflink: open -> lcp > > Oct 19 20:05:36 vdsl02a ppp[2234]: Phase: bundle: Terminate Bang. > And every time the router attempts to reconnect, the same thing is seen. > > Here is the log from the router's perspective: Maybe add IPCP logging on the Cisco too?
