PPPoE
PPPoE in Action
An ADSL modem bridges a PPP session over Ethernet (PPP over Ethernet, RFC 2516) from 
your computer to an ATM PVC (Permanent Virtual Circuit) which connects to a DSL Access 
Concentrator where the PPP session terminates (
).  One PVC can 
support any number of PPP sessions from your LAN. PPPoE provides access control and 
billing functionality in a manner similar to dial-up services using PPP.
Benefits of PPPoE
PPPoE offers the following benefits:
It provides you with a familiar dial-up networking (DUN) user interface.
It lessens the burden on the carriers of provisioning virtual circuits all the way to the ISP on 
multiple switches for thousands of users.  For GSTN (PSTN and ISDN), the switching fabric 
is already in place.
It allows the ISP to use the existing dial-up model to authenticate and (optionally) to provide 
differentiated services.
Traditional Dial-up Scenario
The following diagram depicts a typical hardware configuration where the computers use 
traditional dial-up networking.
