Understanding PPPoE Ethernet Interfaces

During a Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet (PPPoE) session, the device encapsulates each PPP frame in an Ethernet frame and transports the frames over an Ethernet loop. Figure 34 shows a typical PPPoE session between a device and an access concentrator on the Ethernet loop.

To configure PPPoE on an Ethernet interface, you configure encapsulation on the logical interface.
