Hi all

I get a Cisco 1841 router, connecting the office through a CHAP PPPoE link:
[...]
interface Dialer1
  ip address negotiated
  ip mtu 1492
  ip nat outside
  ip virtual-reassembly
  encapsulation ppp
  ip tcp adjust-mss 1452
  dialer pool 1
  dialer-group 1
  no cdp enable
  ppp authentication chap callin
  ppp chap hostname username at isp
  ppp chap password 0 s0meStr0ngP4sswd
[...]


As a fallback solution, I would like to setup a CentOS Dual NIC 1U unit.
I dont want to use NetworkManager, I'd rather use the bare interface 
configuration tools.
I'm running CentOS 6.3


I looked for the right way to configure the internface:
- http://goo.gl/UaNBe: officiel doc, found no indication.
- http://goo.gl/DQ5Gk: using rp-pppoe, is it the right way?
- http://goo.gl/PTaes: seem to be right, but which package is it from?
