PPPoE
PPPoE (point-to-point protocol over Ethernet) 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 can be used to office or building. Users share a common Digital Subscriber Line
(DSL), cable modem, or wireless connection to the Internet. PPPoE 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.
