That's not what you want for PPPoE. For PPPoE you can use ppp(8) or
net/mpd, which is the ppp daemon I choose(and i believe many others).
ppp(8) is very simple to setup, mpd is quite simple and quite lighter(mpd 
handles only the connnection's initiliazation, the rest(more or less) is 
kernel-based. That's not the case with ppp(8))
