Allied Telesis Rapier AR 700 Series How-To

Starting the Link

[root@linux_client michael]# pppd pty 'pppoe -I eth1'

Loading PPP modules for linux kernel 2.4:

[root@linux_client michael]# ping 192.168.0.254

pppoe is actually another PPP daemon and we tell it to start pppoe discovery out eth1. The "pty"

part makes pppd converse via a pseudo terminal, otherwise all the PPP output goes to the screen

and hence the link will not come up.
