How to specify "servicename" for PPPoE connection ?

Hello, 
My ISP requires to "servicename" parameter be specified to establish PPPoE connection. However I didn't find how to do this via web control panel (I'm evaluating Astaro home gateways 7 and 8 for home use) 
Can any body suggest a solution ?
Or may be Astaro will include this option to future releases ?

Regards, Vladimir.

  • Hi BAlfson,
    My ISP provides me with "servicename" - it should be equal to "ruhost". I've done some testing with packets captured by wireshark and found that if servicename is not specified i didn't receive PADO packet after sending PADI ("offer" after "initiate") 

    So my conclusion this parameter does required to setup PPPoE link with my ISP
    Regards Vladimir.
