What do I need for PPPoE?

What do I need for PPPoE?

If your Internet Service Provider uses PPPoE, then you need at least two things, from the ISP:

1. Assign you with a unique ID (username) and password, and.
2. A modem-router that connects you to the network of the internet service provider.

Does PPPoE use DHCP?

DHCP is a protocol for obtaining IP addresses while PPPOE is a common method of connecting to an ISP. DHCP is very popular and is widely used while PPPOE is slowly falling out of favor. You would need to have a username and password with PPPOE while the configuration of DHCP is automatic.

Can I change PPPoE to static IP?

Its possible to configure ip to static even when you’re connect by pppoe in isp end.

Should I choose PPPoE or DHCP?

PPPoE needs to be configured correctly before a user can actually connect to the internet, however, modems that use DHCP does not need to be configured and is basically plug and play. So using DHCP to connect to an ISP eliminates the problems that are associated with PPPOE.

What is the difference between QoS and PPPoE?

Modular QoS command-line interface (CLI) (MQC)—Refer to Modular Quality of Service Command-Line Interface for more information. PPPoE—Refer to PPPoE Baseline Architecture for the Cisco UAC 6400 for more information on PPPoE.

What is the difference between MQC and PPPoE?

Modular QoS command-line interface (CLI) (MQC)—Refer to Modular Quality of Service Command-Line Interface for more information. PPPoE—Refer to PPPoE Baseline Architecture for the Cisco UAC 6400 for more information on PPPoE. This document is not restricted to specific software and hardware versions.

Does PPPoE work on the Cisco 2600 series DSL interfaces?

Cisco IOS Software Release 12.2 (4)T introduced support for a PPPoE client on the Cisco 2600 series. However, the DSL interfaces do not support service policies that apply fancy queueing since these interfaces do not implement the “back-pressure algorithm” necessary to signal that excess packets should be queued by the Layer 3 (L3) queueing system.

How do PPPoE queueing and backpressure work with a DSL interface?

If the router has a DSL interface configured for RFC 1483 -routed virtual circuits (VCs) through the ATM DSL network and the single VC carries multiple PPPoE sessions initiated by the PCs, then standard per-VC queueing and backpressure mechanisms work in Cisco IOS Software Releases 12.2 (4)T and 12.2 (4) and later.
