PPPOE via VLAN German Telekom

[denis.robel]

Hallo,

I have some trouble to use ppp via VLAN. For German Telekom I need valn id 7

I configured following scenario:

1. For Network Interfaces eth0 I use method virtual lan and I add VLAN ID 7 --> I've got a new network interface VLAN7
2. For interface VLAN7 I use method PPPOE and I put username and password in the fields

The result is I cant get any connection...

When I configure all manually

Code: [Select]

ip link add link eth0 name eth0.7 type vlan id 7

pppoeconf eth0.7

pon dsl-provider

route add default ppp0

all is working well. So there the problem must be on Zentyal side.

The result is that on every restart I have to edit the config manually.

I'm running Zentyal 6.1.4.

Help is much appreciated.

Did you check how the Zentyal Network module  configures the '/etc/network/interfaces' file after configuring through webadmin? Did you check the firewall?  eth0 is an external interface?

Cheers!

Read this: https://doc.zentyal.org/en/appendix-c.html#advanced-service-customization

You could customize the needed template or to use the hooks to run an script.

Hallo DonCamillo,

thank you for your response.

Did you check how the Zentyal Network module  configures the '/etc/network/interfaces' file after configuring through webadmin? Did you check the firewall?  eth0 is an external interface?

in /etc/interfaces eth0 is not configured:

Code: [Select]

auto zentyal-ppp-eth0.7
iface zentyal-ppp-eth0.7 inet ppp
      pre-up /sbin/ifconfig eth0.7 up
      post-down /sbin/ifconfig eth0.7 down
      provider zentyal-ppp-eth0.7
      offload-gro off
      offload-gso off
      offload-tso off


iface eth1 inet static
      address 192.168.1.1
      netmask 255.255.255.0
      broadcast 192.168.1.255
      offload-gro off
      offload-gso off
      offload-tso off


auto zentyal-ppp-vlan7
iface zentyal-ppp-vlan7 inet ppp
vlan-raw-device eth0
      pre-up /sbin/ifconfig vlan7 up
      post-down /sbin/ifconfig vlan7 down
      provider zentyal-ppp-vlan7
      offload-gro off
      offload-gso off
      offload-tso off

An yes eth0 is physically my external interface.

The interface vlan7 was created by zentyal but with vlan7 I'm not able to connect via pppd. The device eth0.7 I created manually as described.
My problem is that I don't know where I have to start with scripting to change all from vlan7 to eth0.7 . I don't want to hardcode all in interface.mas.

The big difference is the naming of the virtual netowrk devices vlanxx vs. eth0.xx and the way how they will be created:

zentyal: config

manually I used iplink ...

I expect that the magic is done here: /etc/network/if-pre-up.d/vlan
