Having trouble getting a public IP on the outside interface.
ASA 5505 running 8.0(2)
Westell E90610030-06 DSL box running current firmware.
Service provider is AT&T (Bellsouth)
DSL modem is in bridge mode.
Outside interface of 5505 is set to PPPoE with known good credentials.
I've tried CHAP and PAP authentication.
Last attempt, using MAC cloning, showed a PPPoE address of 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 in the client monitor in ASDM. Authentication is still set to CHAP.
I've read that AT&T does a 2-hour IP lease, so my next step is to shut down the DSL router for 2 hours and try again.
I believe PPPoE debug is still broken in this ASA version, unfortunately.
TIA

The "known good" credentials, weren't.
Testing the new config....

It works, using PAP authentication.
It was a bad PPPoE username.
