When the host receives the Confirmation packet from the Access 
Concentrator, negotiations are concluded and they can proceed to 
the PPP Session stage.
PPP Session Stage
Once the PPPoE session is operative, the host and Access 
Concentrator exchange PPP packets using the unique session 
identifier they negotiated during discovery.
An Access Concentrator may periodically send ICMP Echo-Request 
packets to the host to verify connectivity. This serves to identify 
situations where a host terminates a session without sending a 
Terminate-Request packet (described in the next section), since the 
Access Concentrator might not otherwise be able to determine that 
the session is no longer functional.
At any time after they have established a PPP session, either the host 
or the Access Concentrator can terminate the session by sending the 
other a PPPoE Active Discovery Terminate (PADT) packet. When this 
occurs, no further PPP traffic, including standard PPP termination 
traffic, is permitted between the host and the Access Concentrator.
