        yes I have read this

        but is a pppoe mit mutiple IP's a MLPPP Configuration?
        Should I configure for each IP a PPPoe connection?

        in Endian I configure 1 pppoe per vdsl öline and assign the ip's ….

        I think that the pppeo connection on the 8IP doesnt work

        Internet -> Modem (Bridge) ->[WAN-Interface (PPPoE) 8IP->    PFsense1  -> LAN-Interface 192.168.1.1] -> Webserver1 (int:192.168.1.10)
                                                                                                                                                      -> Webserver2 (int:192.168.1.11)
        Internet2-> Modem2 (Bridge) ->[WAN2-Interface (PPPoE 1IP -> PFsense1 -> LAN-Interface 192.168.1.1] ->  Webserver3 (int: 192.168.1.13)

          I don't have pppoe environment by myself so i can't walk you throuh.
          Can you with virtualIP's first and if it doesn't work straight then you might need more pppoe connections

              I think virtual IP work only when the ppp connection is up … but that is the problem .. it don't come up (Icon in Dashboard is green but Log say no!)

                You need to use virtual IPs but keep just a single pppoe connection I believe.
                There are quite a few posts about this.
                An old post (2007!) but outlines the basics: http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,5253.0.html

                  I read this article and add all IP to ARP in virtual IP
                  still the same
                  ppp log says LCP down an no Gatway is assigned

                    Hmm, I'm a bit confused, your ascii diagram is a bit mangled on my 1024*768 display.

                    So you have two pppoe connections on this box?
                    One 'GREEN' which is working OK and the other, VTX1, is not connecting, yes?

                    I think you should remove all the virtual interfaces and try to get it connected with one IP first.

                      Sorry about the "confusion"

                      Yes "Green" is working … this is the 1 fixed IP line

                      VTX1 doesn't work (the 8 IP line).. the problem from VTX1 is it don't goes "up" fully ... it doesn't receive a IP
                      it also doesn't go up with 1 single IP when I only setup pppoe without GREEN and without virtual IP

                      at home I have from the same ISP like VTX1 a 1 fixed IP line with pfsense 2.0.1 without problems

                        So what is different?
                        Possibly with one IP they send it to you via DHCP but with a group of IPs they are routing to you or you are required to set the IP statically.
                        This could be a question for your ISP.
                        Presumably it worked OK in Endian?

                          In Endian it works well… I haven't defined all 8 IP's because I dont use it
