Cisco Cisco IOS Software Release 12.2(27)SBC

The PPPoE Agent Remote-ID and DSL Line Characteristics Enhancement feature provides a method by 
which the digital subscriber line access multiplexer (DSLAM) sends the DSL Remote-ID tag in the 
discovery phase as an identifier for the authentication, authorization, and accounting (AAA) access 
request on an Ethernet interface, thereby simulating ATM-based broadband access, but using 
cost-effective Ethernet instead. This Remote-ID tag is useful for troubleshooting, authentication, and 
accounting.
