Yes, but it doesn't have comprehensive PPPoE logs and is too cluttered with other information. Even the search bar doesn't allow me to search by process column, like "process:ppp"

General Discussion / Help me to navigate to PPPoE logs
February 02, 2025, 09:33:44 AM
I just updated my OPNsense to 25.1, however I can't find the PPPoE logs anymore. Can you help me to locate the Point-to-Point logs?

Thanks!

I only have private IP sadly, my ISP doesn't assign any public IP, so it's impossible for HE to pinging my IP, even I've allowed ICMP.

Hey Bart, I was finally able to obtain the IPv6 address from IPv4 PPPoE by following this tutorial. However, my ISP only gives me one IPv6 subnet (/64). Is there any way I could obtain more subnets for my VLANs?

Hello Bart, thanks for the reply! I want the PPPoE to be authenticated via OPNsense, not from Linux, as I also have to spoof the MAC addresses for PPPoE dialing work. My current setup is that my OPNsense is installed as a VM on my Proxmox VE server; the vmbr0 is connected to LAN (vtnet1), and vmbr1 is connected to WAN (vtnet0).

I'm happy with my current setup with PPPoE on OPNsense. However, I can only get the IPv4, but not the IPv6, for the internet address. If the configuration was done from my Huawei router, I should have the IPv6 prefix and IP address. But I don't know how to achieve this on OPNsense.

Edit: Here's how the DHCPv6-PD works. So far, I'm using PPPoEv6 on my WAN and got the IPv6 address for the WAN. Should I change my configuration like this?

[WAN]
--Generic configuration--
IPv6 Configuration Type: DHCPv6
--DHCPv6 client configuration--
Leave as default

[LAN]
--Generic configuration--
IPv6 Configuration Type: Track Interface
--Track IPv6 Interface--
Parent interface: WAN

Hello, team!

I have guidelines from my ISP on configuring my Huawei configuration router. However, I don't want to use the router from my ISP, so I want to use the OPNsense instead. So far, I have already connected to the internet through PPPoE. Still, I'm pretty confused about configuring the IPv6 for the WAN, especially finding the equivalent settings for "Prefix Acquisition Mode=DHCPv6-PD" and "IP Acquisition Mode=Automatic" in OPNsense.

PS: My ISP limits dialing PPPoE multiple times. Whenever I've made any changes to the WAN interface or the WAN port, the connection to PPPoE refuses, as the Point-to-Point log file says, "Access number is exceed." I have to call my ISP every time to reset my IP for the PPPoE dialing to be successful, so it has to be well-planned before modifying the WAN interface and WAN port.
