PPPoE debugging

[vegget]

I work with a big governamental network that uses sdwan solution. Recently we are having some issues according to PPPoE debugging. Let's pretend that there are 2 links working in PPPoE mode. Then, when we are trying to debug (diag debug application PPP -1) we don't from what PPPoE interface the logs are coming. Is there some way to find out from what interface is that debugging?

Hi vegget,

You can use the following debug commands to check the interface information:

diag debug application pppoed 255
diagnose debug enable

Additionally, you can take the Packet capture filter on PPPoE interface. Please refer to the below document:

If the PPPoE interface is correctly configured, it would be required to capture the following information from FortiGate:

diag netlink interface list <pppoe>
diag debug reset
diag debug disable
diag debug app pppoed -1
diag debug enable

Could you please clarify the exact issue you are encountering with PPPoE?

In some cases, if your device is part of an HA setup, a conflict may occur due to the HA virtual MAC address being duplicated across different HA clusters.

If you have found a solution, please like and accept it to make it easily accessible to others.
