Note: A device cannot receive PPPoE packets from two different access concentrators on the same physical interface. |
A device initiates the PPPoE discovery stage by broadcasting a PPPoE Active Discovery Initiation (PADI) packet. To provide a point-to-point connection over Ethernet, each PPPoE session must learn the Ethernet MAC address of the access concentrator and establish a session with a unique session ID. Because the network might have more than one access concentrator, the discovery stage allows the client to communicate with all of them and select one.
