Title: PPPoE manually connect and disconnect
Post by: prodriguezd on December 21, 2016, 01:29:00 pm

Hi.

I'm new in OPNSense 16.7.

Can someone tell me if its posible to manually connect and disconnect PPPoE interfaces using the CLI?

I have been googling a lot without sucess.  :-[

Thanks.

This works on pfSense, I just checked in opnSense and the file is gone, not knowing much about BSD I cannot comment on a workaround. Perhaps this works as a starting point for you:

Code: [Select]

/usr/local/sbin/pfSctl -c 'interface reload wan'
It is only for restarting PPPoE though, probably just disabling and enabling the interface does the same trick.

Given that "wan" is your PPPoE connection:

# configctl interface reload wan

On 17.1 and up the console menu option 11 restarts all interfaces as well.
