Step 2.4: PPPoE/PPPoA
PPP or Point-to-Point protocol is a standard method
of establishing a network connection/session between
networked devices. Different forms of PPP include
PPPoA and PPPoE, and they involve an
authentication process that requires a username and
password to gain access to the network. PPPoE
(Point to Point Protocol over Ethernet), as described
in RFC 2516, is a method of using PPP through the
Ethernet network. PPPoA (Point to Point Protocol
over ATM) configuration requires the same basic
information as the previously discussed PPPoE and
both configuration menus are identical. Notice the
VPI and VCI values are included.To configure the
connection for PPPoE/PPPoA, perform the steps
listed below. Some of the settings do not need to be
changed the first time the device is set up, but can be
changed later if you choose. After setting the values
listed, click the Next button to go to Step 3 of the
Configuration Wizard.

your service provider. Many users will be able to use the default settings.
