KONFIGURASI PPPOE SERVER & CLIENT - MIKROTIK TUTORIAL [ENG SUB]

Introduction

This tutorial provides a comprehensive guide on configuring a PPPoE (Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet) server and client using Mikrotik devices. PPPoE is widely used by ISPs for secure internet distribution, allowing for username and password authentication along with data encryption. This guide will walk you through the setup process, ensuring you can effectively manage user connections.

Step 1: Set Up the PPPoE Server

1. Access Mikrotik Router:

   • Open Winbox or use the web interface to log into your Mikrotik router.

2. Create PPPoE Server Interface:

   • Navigate to Interfaces.
   • Click on the PPP tab.
   • Select PPPoE Servers and click Add.
   • Choose the interface you want to use for PPPoE (e.g., Ethernet, Wireless).

3. Configure Settings:

   • Set the service name, if needed.
   • Configure the authentication method (CHAP, PAP, etc.).
   • Enable Use Radius if you plan to use a Radius server for centralized user management.

4. Set IP Pool for Clients:

   • Go to IP > Pool.
   • Click on Add to create a new IP pool for PPPoE clients.
   • Specify the range of IP addresses to allocate to clients.

5. Apply Settings:

   • Ensure your configurations are saved by clicking OK.

Step 2: Configure PPPoE Client

1. Access Client Device:

   • Go to the device (router or computer) you want to set as a PPPoE client.

2. Create PPPoE Client Interface:

   • Open the networking settings.
   • Navigate to the Interfaces section and select PPP.
   • Click on Add and choose PPPoE Client.

3. Enter Connection Details:

   • Input the service name (if applicable).
   • Provide the username and password as set on the PPPoE server.
   • Specify the interface that connects to the PPPoE server.

4. Enable and Apply:

   • Activate the PPPoE client by enabling the interface.
   • Save the settings to establish the connection.

Step 3: Optional Radius Server Setup

1. Install and Configure Radius Server:

   • If managing a large number of users, consider setting up a Radius server.
   • Install the Mikrotik User Manager or another Radius server.

2. Connect Mikrotik to Radius:

   • In Mikrotik, go to Radius under System.
   • Click Add to input the Radius server details, such as address and shared secret.

3. Configure User Profiles:

   • Set up user profiles in the Radius server for authentication, including username/password pairs.

Conclusion

Setting up a PPPoE server and client on Mikrotik devices allows for secure and efficient internet connection management. By following these steps, you can create a robust network that supports multiple users with ease. Consider exploring additional features, such as integrating a Radius server for centralized user management, to enhance your setup further.
