Hi James, Thanks for helping me. Yes. It happens only when I bring up DSL line before 2 minutes. The same DSL lines are working fine without any issue at CentOS-5.11. I could see the issue only at CentOS-6.8. So I would like to know that I need to configure more to avoid these issues. debug log: ------------- Sep 13 15:16:15 Linux pppd[9425]: pppd 2.4.5 started by it-amazon, uid 0 Sep 13 15:16:15 Linux pppd[9425]: using channel 62 Sep 13 15:16:15 Linux pppd[9425]: Using interface ppp0 Sep 13 15:16:15 Linux pppd[9425]: Connect: ppp0 <--> /dev/pts/6 Sep 13 15:16:15 Linux pppoe[9426]: PADS: Service-Name: '' Sep 13 15:16:15 Linux pppoe[9426]: PPP session is 11525 (0x2d05) Sep 13 15:16:16 Linux pppd[9425]: sent [LCP ConfReq id=0x1 <mru 1492> <magic 0x539b3bc6>] Sep 13 15:16:16 Linux pppd[9425]: rcvd [LCP ConfReq id=0x4c <mru 1492> <auth chap MD5> <magic 0x22bf9b51>] Sep 13 15:16:16 Linux pppd[9425]: sent [LCP ConfAck id=0x4c <mru 1492> <auth chap MD5> <magic 0x22bf9b51>] Sep 13 15:16:16 Linux pppd[9425]: rcvd [LCP ConfAck id=0x1 <mru 1492> <magic 0x539b3bc6>] Sep 13 15:16:16 Linux pppd[9425]: sent [LCP EchoReq id=0x0 magic=0x539b3bc6] Sep 13 15:16:16 Linux pppd[9425]: rcvd [CHAP Challenge id=0x1 <24a06e14743d399c933b61865730ea63>, name = "BSLYO656"] Sep 13 15:16:16 Linux pppd[9425]: sent [CHAP Response id=0x1 <502b6f4ee944310f014e0033e9b5438b>, name = "fti/hbufbty"] Sep 13 15:16:16 Linux pppd[9425]: rcvd [LCP EchoRep id=0x0 magic=0x22bf9b51] Sep 13 15:16:16 Linux pppd[9425]: rcvd [CHAP Failure id=0x1 "CHAP authentication failure, unit 509"] Sep 13 15:16:16 Linux pppd[9425]: CHAP authentication failed: CHAP authentication failure, unit 509 Sep 13 15:16:16 Linux pppd[9425]: CHAP authentication failed Sep 13 15:16:16 Linux pppd[9425]: sent [LCP TermReq id=0x2 "Failed to authenticate ourselves to peer"] Sep 13 15:16:16 Linux pppd[9425]: rcvd [LCP TermReq id=0x4d] Sep 13 15:16:16 Linux pppd[9425]: sent [LCP TermAck id=0x4d] Sep 13 15:16:16 Linux pppd[9425]: rcvd [LCP TermAck id=0x2] Sep 13 15:16:16 Linux pppd[9425]: Connection terminated.
