A networking noob here trying to figure out how networks work beyond the LAN and i'm confused about the use of PPP, PPPoE, PPPoA
PPPoE is used to enable PPP features on Ethernet links, a protocol mainly used in DSL lines however DSL modems do have an RJ-11 connecting to the ISP but still use PPPoE...Why is that? Shouldn't it be straight PPP or PPPoA?
I looked around the internet but I didn't find a satisfying anwer, I think it's always better to ask people who actually have experience in the field
