[cisco-bba] PPPoVPDN and VA bandwidth

RFC 2661 mentions Rx and Tx Connect Speed AVP that should be part of the 
ICCN. However, while implementing client initiated L2TP and doing a 
debug vpdn l2x-packets, I notice that the Connect Speed shown on the CPE 
(Cisco 876) and the LNS (Cisco 7206VXR) is set to 0. This sets the 
virtual-access and the virtual-ppp speeds to 100 Mbps.

I assume that setting incorrect bandwidth on the interface would cause 
problems if we were to implement QoS?

Is there a way to resolve the issue and make sure that the Tx speed sent 
by the CPE are correct?

Thanks,
