Hello All, I'm sorry if I'm in the wrong thread. It's my first post. I'm wondering if on the Firewall Fortigate 30E it's possible to configure VLAN interface and under this VLAN interface a PPPoE connection. Can anyone provide such information? Regards Michal

    That's exactly what I do with FG50E at home to terminate CenturyLink fiber directly from NIU outisde. FG30E should be able to do the same on WAN interface.

    Just create a VLAN subinterface on WAN, then set VLAN ID you need to set, and then choose pppoe as mode with user/pass.

    I can confirm that this is working fine. Doing that on a VDSL line with German Telekom, VLAN ID 7. You can even reduce the MTU to less than 1500 bytes.
