PPPoE Intermediate Agent Configuration
54.1 Introduction to PPPoE Intermediate Agent
54.1.1 Brief Introduction to PPPoE
PPPoE (Point to Point Protocol over Ethernet) is a protocol that apply PPP protocol to Ethernet.
PPP protocol is a link layer protocol and supply a communication method of point-to-point, it is
usually selected by host dial-up link, for example the link is line dial-up. PPP protocol is applied to
Ethernet that means PPPoE protocol makes many hosts of Ethernet to connect a remote access
collector through one or multiple bridge devices. If the remote access collector is broadband
access server (BAS), it can supply broadband access and accounting functions for these hosts,
so PPPoE protocol is used to broadband access authentication of Ethernet usually.
54.1.2 Introduction to PPPoE IA
Along with broadband access technique is rapidly developed, broadband access network is also
developing from strength to strength, but security problem gradually becomes the focus, soever
the clients or the access device and the network are faced with security problem (especially from
the client) in the current access network. Traditional Ethernet user can not be identified, traced and
located exactly, however in exoteric and controllable network, identification and location are the
basic character and requirement for user, for example, when supplying the application that use
user accounts to login, this method supplied by PPPoE Intermediate Agent can availably avoid
user accounts embezzled.
There are two stages for PPPoE protocol work: discovery stage and session stage. Discovery
stage is used to obtain MAC address of the remote server to establish a point-to-point link and
a session ID with the server, and session stage uses this session ID to communicate. PPPoE
Intermediate Agent only relates to discovery stage, so we simply introduce discovery stage.
There are four steps for discovery stage:
1. Client sends PADI packet: The first step, client uses broadcast address as destination
address and broadcast PADI (PPPoE Active Discovery Initiation) packet to discover access
collector in layer 2 network. Notice: This message may be sent to many access collector of
the network.
2. Broadband Access Server responds PADO packet: The second step, server responds
