    Your Fortigate are in HA (2xfortigates 300d)?

     

    This option is available on HA only in 5.2.x release.... Upgrade to 5.2.7

    Hi,

     

    My appliance FG1000c has similar issue, i has updated to the latest firmware which is 5.4.1 Build 1064 (GA). When i go to network > interface > create new interface to setup dial and i don't see PPoE option in addressing mode. Please assist. 

     

    Thank you,

    If you're trying to create a sub-interface like VLAN and the Addressing mode is showing only "Manual" and "DHCP" without "PPPoE" in the GUI, I would try CLI to see if it would work as I mentioned above. Regardless of the outcome of the CLI, it would likely be a sort of bug one way or the other, so you should open a TT at TAC. My FG50E w/ 5.4.1 doesn't show the problem.

    Probably I spoke too soon. Our 1500D w/ 5.2.7 doesn't show PPPoE as an option in GUI as well. But when I tried CLI it took it but still doesn't show up in GUI. There must be a reason.  If nobody replies with why in a day or two please open a TT and let me know what kind of answer you can get. Could be a global setting or something like that.

    Hi,

     

    To config PPPoe you have to access the CLI and input this lines:

     

    config system interface edit "wan1" set vdom "root" set mode pppoe set type physical set username *** set password *** set disc-retry-timeout 5 set padt-retry-timeout 4 next end

     

    PS.: If you use more than one wan, you may enable priority and distance on PPPoE port config to avoid routing mistakes.
