element can be received by all other network elements, but data that originates from a
non-central network element can be received by only the central network element. See
http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc2178.html
. Also referenced as PMP.

operators who use PPPoE in other parts of their network
operators who want to deploy PPPoE to realize per-subscriber authentication, metrics,
and usage control.
