Objectives

We assume here that you want to connect your LEAF router to the Internet via an ADSL PPPoE connection. What is described here corresponds to section 3.2.3 of the DSL How-To document. Your ADSL modem is supposed to be connected to eth0, while the traffic to your internal network goes through eth1.

The PPP-Howto and the DSL-Howto are two useful references for this section.
