In an SMB Environment many of our costumers uses cheep ADSL Internet connection. The ISP´s terminates this ADSL lines with DSL Modems and we must use PPPoE to connect to the Internet. Which scenario is possible when i will use a ASA5500 to secure the customers internet connection and terminate SSL and IPSEC VPN´s. I have read that the ASA software release 7.x do not support PPPoE.
With best regards from Jena

Hi Frank
You are correct. For all of us which wanted to update our pix 6.3 t o7.x we were told that pppoe "was going to be supported in 7.1 not in 7.0"
This is not the case. PPPOE is not supported neighter using Pix 7.1 nor ASA 7.1 (perhaps becahse the software is pritty much the same).
Lets all sit down and wait for connectivity untill 7.2 - or 7.5 or perhaps 8.0 is released...... :-(

Hi Jarle,
thanks for your answer. I thought as much.
Do you know a other solution as sitting down and wait ?
It is possible to use a cisco router in front of the ASA thats terminate the PPPoE session and the ASA can although use the public IP-Address from the PPPoE Session or a fix IP-Address from my ISP.
Do you know such a scenario?
With best regards from Jena

Hi ... in fact the last release notes from April 2006 states that PPPoE is not supported on 7.1 (2). so yes you can use a router as PPPoE client and connect the PIX to one of its interfaces.

Hi, am I correct in assuming from your answer here that PPPoE is not supported in ver 7.x on an ASA5520?

Yes, you are correct. It is supposed to be supported in the next release (scheduled for "late summer" 2006? )

I have done few ...
Depends on senario....
1. If the service provider give more than one public IP...then
Firewall Inside - private ip
Firewall outside - public ip
DSL - public ip
2. If 1 public ip only.
Firewall Inside - private IP
Firewall outside - private IP
DSL - public IP
Senario 1 is easy. Just enable bridge mode in DSL router.
For Senario 2, on the DSL router setting, enable one to one NAT of the DSL public to Firewall Outside interface....
For outbound connection to internet
Senario 1 is single NAT
Senario 2 is double NAT :)
