PPPoE Session Stage

The PPPoE session stage starts after the PPPoE discovery stage is over. The access concentrator can start the PPPoE session after it sends a PPPoE Active Discovery Session-Confirmation (PADS) packet to the client, or the client can start the PPPoE session after it receives a PADS packet from the access concentrator. A device supports multiple PPPoE sessions on each interface, but no more than 256 PPPoE sessions per device.

Each PPPoE session is uniquely identified by the Ethernet address of the peer and the session ID.
