db networks set eth1.500 vlan role pppoe
db networks settype ppp0 xdsl
db networks setprop ppp0 role red user test Password test
signal-event interface-update
When you get an authentication error in /var/log/messages make sure that your eth1 Interface has no role. Command for that:
db networks setprop eth1 role ‘’
The only problem i have is that my Internet connection is slowed down. I runned a lot of speedtests directly on my NS Server and it never gets more than 100Mbit/s which is less than half what my ISP is offering me.
Connecting the FritzBox i got over 200Mbit/s.
Does anybody know why?
Snort is an IPS and you don’t have it installed.
I guess the performance problems are related to the PPPoE implementation.
As you know, I’m not an expert. Reading what I found on the net, I’m not sure if we can use a better/faster implementation (or maybe we’re already using it).
It seems that you could try adding the following line to /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-pp0 and then restart the connection with service network restart: LINUX_PLUGIN=/usr/lib64/pppd/2.4.5/rp-pppoe.so
Entering “LINUX_PLUGIN=/usr/lib64/pppd/2.4.5/rp-pppoe.so” in the ifcfg-ppp0 file and reloading by “signal-event interface-update” doesn´t have any effect. It just removed the entered line in ifcfg-ppp0.
If you use the interface-update event, you’ll loose the manual modification.
If you could confirm that adding that lines it’s the solution, we will make the modification permanent.
[root@NET01 network-scripts]# service network restart

Bringing up interface eth1.802: [ OK ]
Bringing up interface ppp0: [ OK ]
The effect is that the Interetconnection on the server still exist but no client can connect to the Internet. Is that a problem with the eth0 interface?
One more thing: After completely restarting my whole NS the configuration is lost. If @davidep will make this change permanent it is an important thing.
Edit1: Okay i just made some Software Updates and my speed slowed down to about 20Mbit/s). After making some refreshes and restarts i reached 100Mbit/s again but it´s not stable yet.
I don´t know what to do.
Edit2: I made a complete New Installation of my NS but nothing changed. The speed is still Limited to 20Mbit/s. I made no changes on the proxmox network settings. I really can’t understand that.
To write LINUX_PLUGIN=/usr/lib64/pppd/2.4.5/rp-pppoe.so permanently to ifcfg-ppp0 try to add the following command before the interface-update event.
…
db networks setprop ppp0 linux_plugin /usr/lib64/pppd/2.4.5/rp-pppoe.so
signal-event interface-update
Question: which version of NethServer are you running?
Changing the actual PPoE UI for VLAN support, as we saw in the past is complex and I have no plans for it at the moment. Anyway I reopened this issue on ns7 to track our (tiny) progresses.
