[nsp] PPPoE over an IEEE 802.1Q VLAN

[Dennis Peng]

Broadband aggregation and VPDN features aren't supported in 12.2S and
have been removed mainly because it isn't tested and the code base is
so old (relatively speaking since that part of the code is in such
high flux) you'd be re-treading old bugs. Can you go with 12.3? 12.2
mainline would also work but probably would be less desirable for
similar reasoning as 12.2S but less so. For the time being, it is also
much easier to pick up bug fixes on 12.2 or 12.3 as compared to 12.2S.
