If you configure the interface to use PPPoE, the FortiGate unit automatically broadcasts a PPPoE request from the interface.
The FortiGate units support many PPPoE RFC features (RFC 2516) including unnumbered IPs, initial discovery timeout and PPPoE Active Discovery Terminate (PADT).
PPPoE is only configurable in the web-based manager on desktop FortiGate units. 1U FortiGates and up must be configured in the CLI using the commands:
config system interface
edit
set mode pppoe
set username
set password
set idle-timeout
set distance
set ipunnumbered
set disc-retry-timeout
set padt-retry-timeout
set lcp-echo-interval
set dns-server-override {enable | disable}
end
Configure PPPoE on an interface in Network > Interfaces. The table describes the PPPoE status information when PPPoE is configured for an interface.
The Fortinet Security Fabric brings together the concepts of convergence and consolidation to provide comprehensive cybersecurity protection for all users, devices, and applications and across all network edges.
