PPPoE does not need any port, for it is a layer 2 concept. You do not
ever need an IP on the interface that supports your PPPoE link.

While I do not think this is an accurate place to discuss this, I can
point you to http://www.roaringpenguin.com/pppoe/ where you'll find very
usefull documentation stuff.
