Replace the XXX in the [set device PPPoE:XXX] statement with the Nic
card FBSD interface name. Sometimes it will be necessary to use a
service tag to establish your connection depending on how your ISP
and/or the phone company has it's DSL network configured. Service
tags are used to distinguish between different PPPoE servers
attached to a given network. You should have been given any required
service tag information in the documentation provided by your ISP.
If you cannot locate it there, ask your ISP's tech support
personnel. This is the format of the command with the service tag
added
set device PPPoE:XXX:service_tag
The xxxx is the FBSD interface name used by PPPoE, the interface
must be UP, (IE: enabled). It is only used as transport, and does
not need to be assigned an IP address. This can be done
automatically at boot time by updating the /etc/rc.conf file. The
format of the statement to add is ifconfig_xxxx=up where xxxx is Nic
card FBSD interface name used by PPPoE that you specified in the
/etc/ppp/ppp.conf file.
ee /etc/rc.conf      # add following statement
ifconfig_xxxx=up


Let my know if this works for you
