5.3.3 Configuring PPPoE
PPPoE provides access control and billing functionality in a manner similar to dial-up
services using PPP. The router bridges a PPP session over Ethernet (PPP over Ethernet, RFC
2516) from your computer to an ATM Permanent Virtual Circuit (PVC) that connects to the ADSL
Access Concentrator, where the PPP session terminates. Single PVC can support any number
of PPP sessions from your LAN.

Point-to-Point Protocol over ATM Adaptation Layer 5 (AAL5) (PPPoA) provides access
control and billing functionality in a manner similar to dial-up services using PPP. The router
encapsulates the PPP session based on RFC1483 and sends it through ATM PVC to the ISP’s
DSLAM.
