PPPoE fails within a VLAN

ambo

I have multiple broadband providers connected to multiple VLANs on my managed switch. I have a trunk mode port connected to the pfSense box that is carrying multiple VLANs.

All the VLANs carrying normal IP traffic are working fine but when I select a VLAN as a PPPoE interface I fail to get the interface to come up. When I change to dialing the PPPoE over a native untagged port I have no problems.

I can only think that there is some problem with the PPPoE client dialing on VLAN interfaces.

Can you post the log of your system regarding this.

Should be ok on next snapshot or you can try changing manually as in

I am currently testing with yesterdays snapshot and the problem seems to have been solved :)
