Configuring PPPoE for Cisco Router 520 and for series 850 and 870

The Cisco 520 Ethernet to Ethernet router can be used as a PPPoE Client (Point to Point over Ethernet) to connect a small office to a DSL service for Internet access. Also, using Network Address Translation (NAT), you can connect multiple computers to the Internet using the same router. The same configuration applies also for the newest Cisco 850 and 870 series ISR routers.

PPPoE is a protocol which encapsulates the older dial-up PPP protocol into Ethernet frames for sending over ADSL networks. The physical interface needed for PPPoE is still Ethernet, but you need to configure some sort of dial-up configuration on the router, as we will see below. A simple network diagram of a small SOHO network using a Cisco 520 (applicable also for 850 and 870 series models) with PPPoE connection is shown below:

Configuration Example

Assume that the internal network range is 10.0.0.0 /24. Also, FastEthernet4 is the WAN facing interface. We will configure the PPPoE using a Virtual Private Dialup Network (VPDN) group and make this group work with pppoe protocol. A sample of the configuration is shown below:
