[cisco-bba] Multiple PPPoE Sessions per PVC

[Christoph Loibl]

Hi!

Did someone of you ever try to setup multiple PPPoE sessions per single 
PVC on CPEs like Cisco 877, 878? Is this supported (ie. Alcatel does 
support that on their CPEs - as far as I understand the manual).

Multiple PPPoE sessions in multiple PVCs works fine but does not always 
scale very well (when only network L2/L3 separation is needed but no 
quality/bandwidth requirements).

The intention is to seperate different services that do not have special 
bandwidth/quality requirements but shall never be mixed (ie. internet 
access vs. some vpn). The seperation on the CPE-side is performed by 
vrf-lite (by putting the dialer interfaces and local vlan interfaces 
into seperate vrfs).

Sometimes we could make use of up to 3-4 sessions. Any ideas?

Regards

Christoph
