PPPoE snooping

PPPoE snooping enables devices that receive and forward PPPoE discovery (PPPoED) packets to analyze these packets and to supplement them with additional information. This information can be used by a PPPoE access concentrator (AC) to process the PPPoED data packets accordingly. This role is called the "PPPoE-Intermediate-Agent".

PPPoE snooping in the LCOS processes the following PPPoED packets:

The PPPoE intermediate agent, which is responsible for the PPPoE snooping, supplements the PPPoED packet with manufacturer-specific attributes (circuit ID and remote ID), and any existing IDs in received packets are replaced with its own values.

PPPoE snooping is configured for each LAN/WLAN interface.
