[ccing Alfred, since cvs annotate points at him]

If label has not been specified, it defaults to provider. So this comment
is not meaningless. If you want to specify another label, you should use
pppoed_flags variable.

I think it will be better to change comment to "PPPoE Provider name".
Alfred, what do you think?

Thank you for your reply.  
I think comment statement in /etc/defaults/rc.conf should be changed
because the current comment means '-l'.  Otherwise we should change
/etc/rc.network.   Don't you think so?

-- /etc/defaults/rc.conf --
 pppoed_provider="service-pppoe"# Provider and ppp(8) config file entry.

No.

-l switch configures label in ppp.conf
-p swicth configures provider name which is announced in Ethernet.
