Figure 61 Network structure 1

• As shown in Figure 62, the PPPoE session is established between each host (PPPoE client) and the

carrier router (PPPoE server). The service provider assigns an account to each host for billing and

control. The host must be installed with PPPoE client dialup software. This network structure is

applicable to campus and residential environments.
