Hi Jonathan,
Yes, you are right. Current VPP plus PPPoE plugin implements the data plane of
a PPPoE server, such as vBRAS.
It can be integrated with Control Plane, such as Open BRAS with link:
https://github.com/wfnex/openbras
Currently, it could not be used as a PPPoE client.
For now, there is not a roadmap to implement a PPPoE client, because it
contains complex PPPoE stack.
If you need a PPPoE client, you can use some open source projects, such as:

Subject: [vpp-dev] using vpp as pppoe client
Hello,
I saw Hongjun.ni upload some plugin code and python case about using vpp for
pppoe. But from my understanding, it looks like vpp is used as a pppoe server.
Could you please give some detail info about how to use vpp as a pppoe client?
If vpp is not able to do that, is there a roadmap to achieve it in your plan?
And how to do nat through pppoe_session if vpp is used as a pppoe client?
Your answer will be greatly appriciated!
谢谢
祁晋
