Help! PPPOE clients

Can use PPPOE client on routerOS to login get ip addrese and send it to eth1? So when a juse connect to the eth1 its get ipaddrese? and only one addrese?

I have never tray PPPOE, but i have understand that it more safe, and gets more control. And use Freeradius whit MYSQL.

Is it any downside whit PPPOE?

send it to eth1?

What do you mean by send it to eth1 ?

PPPoE is very secure, you don’t have IP address on the local interface of the router and only PPPoE users can connect to server [to the Internet]
When PPPoE session is established point-to-point connection is established between server and client, point-to-point addresses are used on both routers.

You need to configure PPPoE client, one of the biggest PPPoE downsides.

What i want is to use the PPPOE client on the routerboard, so it gets ip to my user and then delivert this to eth1, so that he can connect a router or to a computer whitoute runing a PPPOE client.

bump :slight_smile:

Add PPPoE client on public/remote interface of the router, setup private network to local interface where client computer is connected.
Add masquerade rule, ip firewall add action=masquerade out-interface=PPPoE_interface chain=srcnat

then the user will get local ip, not a public one, then i have to chage the rules on the firewall, ETC

Do you have additional public subnet to give it to clients ?

You can go without masquerade,

  • setup pool with public addresses, exclude one address for your router;
  • specify pool at remote-address in PPP profile [Clients assigned addresses];
  • add one address to local-address, address to be used by router itself.
