PPPoE was a bad idea from the start. It was rammed through as Informational by a few industry advocates despite warnings and the stern disapproval of essentially every participant in the PPPEXT working group, simply because some large providers didn't want to change their view that all ISP customers should look like dial-up users. Get over it and use a real protocol, just as Jim recommends. Karl _______________________________________________ Pppext mailing list [email protected] https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/pppext
