Description
BSD port of Roaring Penguin's pppoe client by Geoff Mottram <[email protected]>.
This BSD port of Roaring Penguin's PPPoE client uses the Berkeley Packet Filter to provide direct access to the Ethernet protocol for the pppd(8) daemon. It adds an additional feature that is not found in the Linux distribution for watching PPPoE packets. Details on this feature can be found in the "PPPoE Packet Watching" section at the bottom of this file.
The Roaring Penguin PPPoE client is a robust product that has been widely used and tested by the Linux community. It integrates tightly with the PPP daemon (pppd) to take advantage of all of the features of that package.
The software has been tested on NetBSD 1.4.2 but should run on any BSD variant that has pppd version 2.3.7 or later. Note that demand-dialing requires pppd 2.3.10 or later.
