As Tom asks, how will you be interfacing with it ? I'm using VDSL2 in the UK, and it's as simple as setting up a PPP client to do PPPoE with the ISP and treating the PPP interface as a separate interface in Shorewall. If, like some of the modems I've used with ADSL, you can talk to the modem over the same NIC - then define that as another interface (ie eth1 is the NIC you talk to the modem over, ppp0 is the PPPoE session that runs over it). I like to set the instance number in the PPP config so that it's static and not ppp0. With only one PPP connection it's a bit redundant, but if you have more than one (I used to admin a router with 3 VDSL2 connections) then it means you don't need to worry about what order the sessions get established. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ Shorewall-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/shorewall-users
