Description
When there is an outage (whether accidental or network maintenenace) the PPPoE session will drop. With some ISPs there is a limit on the number of PPPoE login attempts/failures before the credentials are locked out. Once the waiting period has elapsed (usually in the range of 5-15min) the PPPoE credentials will be allowed to authenticate again.
It would be useful to have an option in the PPPoE WAN to set a waiting period for reconnection. This would increase automation in outage situations as a human would not have to intervene to prevent PPPoE connection establishment momentarily.
