Disclosed relates to an asymmetric digital subscriber line (ADSL) access multiplexer connected direct to existing Ethernet and an ADSL network system using the ASDL access multiplexer. The ADSL network system excludes a conventional network access server (NAS) and connects the ADSL access multiplexer direct to the Ethernet, thus decentralizing the processes for authentication, imposition of charge and traffic to a corresponding local network. Accordingly, the problem of traffic centralization raised by the conventional NAS is solved readily. Besides, the ADSL access multiplexer according to the invention further includes a remote authentication dial-in user service (RADIUS) client program, whereby the processes for authentication and imposition of charge are made very easily.
