Siemens 5935 User Manual

If you selected Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet over PPPoA from the Wan Interface page, the Point-
to-Point Protocol over Ethernet over PPPoA page is displayed when you click Next.

To configure Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet over PPPoA: 

1. Enter PPPoE User Name and Password to use for authentication when establishing a WAN connection 

using PPPoE protocol. 

2. In Service Name, enter the domain name of your network service provider. Use * as a default (for all 

services).

3. In PPPoE Timer, enter the number of seconds of inactivity that must elapse before the PPP connection 

closes. This helps to limit connection charges from your service provider during times of inactivity. The 
default entry of “permanent” will keep the PPP connection open constantly, with no time out interval.

4. Optionally select PPPoE only Filter. When selected, all traffic on the bridge is filtered to allow PPPoE 

only. Select this option if you will only connect to your network service using PPPoE. 

5. If you are using PPPoE over PPPoA, enter the PPPoA Username and Password. 

6. Click Next. This displays the 

page.
