The pppoe_seq_show() function displays session ID, remote MAC address, and the underlying Ethernet device, but omits the associated PPP interface name. This makes it difficult to correlate PPPoE sessions with their respective pppX interfaces. Retrieve the interface name using ppp_dev_name() and append it as a new "PPP-Device" column in the /proc/net/pppoe output.
