A few things.. 1/ thisn is a FreeBSD list so we are not very familiar with linux. 2/ PPPOE uses PPP which is a point-to-point protocol and does not support broadcast. 3/ DHCP is a broadcast protocol and does not support point-to-point networks. 4/ PPP (oE) has its own IP allocation mechanism.

Wouldn't DHCP Protocol work over PPP Interface? If any one knows, please reply.
