PPPoE Configuration

Profile Interface Configuration

PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE) is a data-link protocol for dialup connections. PPPoE allows the access
point to use a broadband modem (DSL, cable modem, etc.) for access to high-speed data and
broadband networks. Most DSL providers are currently supporting (or deploying) the PPPoE
protocol. PPPoE uses standard encryption, authentication, and compression methods as specified
by the PPPoE protocol. PPPoE enables Mobility supported controllers and access points to
establish a point-to-point connection to an ISP over existing Ethernet interface.
