You may want to look at what PPPoE really is and how "dialing" works in
that case:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Point-to-point_protocol_over_Ethernet

explains it quite good. Afterwards reading the defining document:

http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2516

will give some more exact requirements.

IMHO it boils down do opening a network socket and sending some special
packets - that would be pretty easy ...

HTH,
Marc
