No IP assigned to Outside on PPPOE Connect,

[geemul]

Hello,
I'm setting up a 506E to do PPPOE over a transparent bridged xDSL modem to connect to my ISP.

I used the sample config from here and the Cisco manuals:

This is a sample PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE) PIX/ASA configuration:

vpdn group pppoegroup request dialout pppoe
vpdn group pppoegroup localname xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
vpdn username xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx password xxxxxxxxx
vpdn group pppoegroup ppp authentication PAP
ip address outside pppoe setroute

In the above example I've substituted xxxxxx for my localname, username and passwords. The strings of x's above are exactly the same length as my real names and password. I used my ISP supplied username as the localname.

After connect I get the following by running "sh vpdn"

Tunnel id 0, 1 active sessions
time since change 65862 secs
6 packets sent, 6 received, 84 bytes sent, 0 received
Remote Internet Address is 10.0.0.1
Session state is SESSION_UP
Time since event change 65865 secs, interface outside
PPP interface id is 1
6 packets sent, 6 received, 84 bytes sent, 0 received

You'll notice the return shows "SESSION_UP" but doesn't list "Remote Internet Address" or "Local Internet Address" which I assume is why my internal clients have no Internet access.

Any thoughts or additional configurations I need?

Ye, I am new to Cisco configuraton so if there are any plain English books or websites I'd appreciate that information too!

Thanks,
Geoff

Well, I defaulted the PIX to factory settings and started again.

Now it works!

No idea what happened there, now to get PDM working!
