packets are t
ransferred via ATM network. In
this connection mode, user must have static
IP address, subnet mask and other
parameters. Lack of user name and password
authentication, it can not implement network
administration and QoS features, so this
access way will not prevail any more.
PPPoA：
Short for Point-to-Point Protocol over
Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM). PPPoA
relies on two widely accepted standards: PPP
and ATM. It is an end-to-end asymmetric
digital subscriber line (ADSL) architecture. IP
packets travel from the PC over Ethernet to
the DSL modem, called the ADSL transceiver
unit-remote (ATU-R). The ATU-R adds the
PPP protocol to the IP packets and transports
them to the carrier's Digital Subscriber Line
Access Multiple (DSLAM) via ATM. It is a
technology becoming more popular with DSL
providers.
PPPoE：
Acronym for Point-to-Point Protocol over
