[c-nsp] Bonding ADSL

thanks for the reply...

I'd be happy to share configs etc. - maybe the biggest thing I may have
missed with MLPPP is what should be configured on the 7206VXR to permit
MLPPP?  Or does anything need to be configured on the 7206VXR (l2tp
tunnels) to do it is perhaps the question....

When I did try it on the 1811, traffic would pass "partially" but then
stop working all together.... was kind of hoping someone had a "stock
config" they could share on this...

All the best,

Paul

I think MLPPP is a much better option than BGP (or any routing protocol,
for that matter) in this environment as bonding is what MLPPP was
designed for.  Perhaps working with the folks here to get your MLPPP
configuration working could be an idea.
