Anybody using PPPoE client feature on canopy 9.x?

Hi all,
I’m trying to test PPPoE client feature included on 9.x releases.
I setted up a PPPoE concentrator on my NOC.
I’m sure it works, because the following configuration is working:

NAT disabled on Canopy SM
PPPoE client configured on client pc, directly connected to Canopy SM (Windows XP native client)

When I configure the same service/username/password on the SM, of course enabling NAT, the SM PPPoE status says “connecting” and nothing happens :frowning:

PPPoE Log says:

I use this feature from v9.5 (not trying on earlier versions because of missing CHAP support) without any problem. Using CHAP auth.type, 1492MTU, TCP MSSC disabled.

Thank you kejsix,
what do you use as PPPoE concentrator?

Admin said, thet we use Linux 2.6 kernel + PPP daemon with RP-PPPoE plugin.

Eureka! Finally I did managed!!!
The problem was the “Access concentrator” parameter. Windows doesn’t require it.
It must match the PPPoE server name (in my case a Mikrotik/Routerboard box).

Heh, I´ve left that field blank and it works well too. Have you more concentrators on that route?
