3.3.7 PPPoE and PPPoA

PPPoE (point-to-point protocol over Ethernet) and PPPoA (point-to-point protocol over ATM)
are authentication and connection protocols used by many service providers for broadband
Internet access. These are specifications for connecting multiple computer users on an
Ethernet local area network to a remote site through common customer premises equipment,
which is the telephone company's term for a modem and similar devices. PPPoE and PPPoA
can be used to office or building. Users share a common Digital Subscriber Line (DSL), cable
modem, or wireless connection to the Internet. PPPoE and PPPoA combine the Point-to-Point
Protocol (PPP), commonly used in dialup connections, with the Ethernet protocol or ATM
protocol, which supports multiple users in a local area network. The PPP protocol information
is encapsulated within an Ethernet frame or ATM frame.
