[nsp] 7206 VXR for ADSL PPPoE Aggregation

Should have made it slightly clearer. :-)We are doing PPPoE/A over multiple
L2TP tunnels. The command
"vpdn ip udp ignore checksum"
applies to the checksum carried on the L2TP UDP packets. It does not affect
the payload checksum. Sorry if I raised any hopes...
See http://www.elemental.net/~lf/undoc/#d0e2928 for more info.

We are running VXR's and terminating around 1000 customers with a NPE-300
and 256M RAM. The only scaling issue (now resolved) was the use of checksums
which was en-forced by the downstream LNS.
This meant that the VXR would confirm the checksum and process switch the
traffic rather than CEF switching it. A hidden IOS command told the router
to ignore the checksum and this reduced the CPU utilization significantly.
IE from 90-95% to only 30-35%! Has been more stable since.
Regards,
Ash

I won't give any suggestions regarding CPU scaling, but IOS-wise you may
want to look at latest 12.2B code.
