Hi guys, I was wondering, what is the correct way to configure a network card that will only be used to connect to a pppoe device? I know I can use pppoeconf to configure pppoe dial-up even if the network card is configured with an IP address. But I've seen on a number of dedicated firewall distros (IP-COP et al) that the external interface would have an IP address like 1.1.1.1 or something else.
So how do I go about doing this the correct Debian-compliant way? If I just leave the address settings out of /etc/network/interfaces, networking won't start and complains about the missing variables.
