Ah, thanks: I had tried to bring it up using nmcli, but missed this error:
Jul 04 10:53:23 umbrella NetworkManager[1183]: <warn> [1593885203.4348] device
(wan0): PPPoE failed to start: the PPP plugin
/usr/lib64/NetworkManager/1.20.12-1.fc31/libnm-ppp-plugin.so is not installed
I installed it:
dnf install NetworkManager-ppp
And was able to get PPPoE working.
I don't think rp-pppoe is needed, but have left it installed for now.
PITA as I'm trying to get rid of my combined modem router (actiontech C3000A)
with
new Centurylink internet service, and I can't modify the modem settings once I
put
it in bridge mode - it has to be physically reset if I want to change anything,
like
put it back to PPPoE mode, or to disable the VLAN.
