Seting up second wan interface with PPPOE
-
Hi guys
I'm somewhat confused about setting up my second wan connection.
A ISP installed a (router) for my second wan connection. they informed me that i need to setup PPPOE on my pfsense firewall. I received a IP adres + users + password.
I have no clue if i need a PPPOE server and how to set it up. I found a tutorial but it was not very clear.
Can someone give me some advice?
My primary wan connection is a router that connects to pfsense, i did not need to configure any PPPOE connections.so I'm abit confused
thanks for your help

You do not need the PPPoE server. Go to Interfaces > [name of interface connected to the new modem] and set the IPv4 type to PPPoE and enter the user/pass there.

Once you get the pppoe connection working you will have to decide how you are going to use the two wans, either independently or in a load balancing configuration.
After that you have set up firewall rules on your lan and other interfaces to direct traffic accordingly.
