      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
