There are some internal network scenarios that will result in the F2250 selecting to use a DHCP connection type. In these cases, the F2250 must be changed to a PPPoE connection type and the customer’s port must be rebuilt by the MCO.
Use the following steps to change to a PPPoE connection type.
IMPORTANT: These steps must be followed in the order they are presented.
Any other order can result in the customer’s port reverting
