Want to understand PPPoE/PPP

Post by hanamantagoud » Fri Nov 27, 2015 6:12 am

Hi All ,

I am new to PPPoE/PPP . I am reading the RFC 2516 and 1661.
What i understand is PPPoE/PPP are Layer 2 protocols which carry traffic from CPE to BNG/BRAS Edge router.

I want to know why PPPoE/PPP are called as point-to-point ?
Could you please point me to any link which explains this well ?

Thanks in advance.
