RAX120 PPoE through CenturyLink Fiber Transceiver

I have a RAX120 connected through Century Link Modem, connected to Fiber Transciever.

 

I would like to bypass the Century Link Modem.  I have my PPoE authentication from Century Link.

 

I'm stuck at the RAX120 PPoE config.  No combination I have tried appears to work.  There is no useful output to debug.  Unclear if there is a special handshake, or cert required.

 

Has anyone successfully done this with Century Link Fiber?

  • Figured it out with some digging.  I was missing vlan tag group 201.

    It works great!

  • The info CenturyLink provides is:

     

    1. Connection Type: PPPoE (You can get your PPP username/password from their tech support via chat)
    2. Multiplexing: LLC
    3. VPI = 0
    4. VCI = 32

    How do I determine if the RAX120 PPoE config is compatible?
