PPPoE Encapsulation

The Business Secure Router supports PPPoE (Point-to-Point Protocol over
Ethernet). PPPoE is an IETF Draft standard (RFC 2516) specifying how a
personal computer (PC) interacts with a broadband modem (for example, DSL,
cable, or wireless) connection. The PPPoE option is for a dial-up connection
using PPPoE.
For the service provider, PPPoE offers an access and authentication method that
works with existing access control systems (for example, Radius). PPPoE
provides a logon and authentication method that the existing Microsoft Dial-Up
Networking software can activate, and therefore requires no new learning or
procedures for Windows users.
One of the benefits of PPPoE is the ability to let you access one of multiple
network services, a function known as dynamic service selection. This makes it
easy for the service provider to create and offer new IP services for individuals.
