How to configure the PPPoE on Solaris[TM] 8

Snowict

Sun PPPoE is available in the Solaris [TM] 8 10/01 Maintenance Update 6 and higher. It is not available in earlier versions of the Solaris [TM] Operating Environment.

Packages:

Make sure the following packages are installed for pppoe server/client configuration:

        # pkginfo -l |grep pppd
        PKGINST: SUNWpppd
        PKGINST: SUNWpppdr
        PKGINST: SUNWpppdt
        PKGINST: SUNWpppdu
        PKGINST: SUNWpppdx           
Client confguration:

1. Make sure that no ppp daemon is running on the system, suchas ppp, pppd,pppoed, etc.

2. Make sure that the network interface, such as eri, le, ge, etc., is used only for pppoe.

3. Create a file in /etc/ppp/peers such as myserver to keep the connecting parameters.

        pppoeclnt# more /etc/ppp/peers/myserver
        sppptun
        updetach
        debug
        plugin pppoe.so
        connect "/usr/lib/inet/pppoec -v eri0 local"           


Where:

sppptun - what device to use

updetach -will display the o/p on screen when pppd starts.

debug -dubug mode

plugin pppoe.so -initialize the connect string.

connect "..." -connect string

4. Plumb the pppoed & pppoe protocols on the network interface eri0 as follows:

        pppoeclnt# sppptun plumb pppoed eri0
        pppoeclnt# sppptun plumb pppoe eri0           


5. Verify that the interface is plumbed:

        pppoeclnt# sppptun query
        eri0:pppoed
        eri0:pppoe           


6. Start the pppoed deamon:

        pppoeclnt#/usr/lib/inet/pppoed

7. Test the client configuration. You should see the MAC address, type of service, etc.

        pppoeclnt# /usr/lib/inet/pppoec -i eri0
