ZyXEL G-2000 Plus v2 User's Guide For the service provider, PPPoE offers an access and authentication method that works with existing access control systems (for example Radius). PPPoE provides a login and authentication method that the existing Microsoft Dial-Up Networking software can activate, and therefore requires no new learning or procedures for Windows users. One of the benefits of PPPoE is the ability to let you access one of multiple network services, a function known as dynamic service selection. This enables the service provider to easily create and offer new IP services for individuals. Operationally, PPPoE saves significant effort for both you and the ISP or carrier, as it requires no specific configuration of the broadband modem at the customer site. By implementing PPPoE directly on the ZyXEL device (rather than individual computers), the computers on the LAN do not need PPPoE software installed, since the ZyXEL device does that part of the task. Furthermore, with NAT, all of the LANs' computers will have access. The screen shown next is for PPPoE encapsulation. Figure 35 PPPoE Encapsulation The following table describes the labels in this screen.
