[c-nsp] combining multiple dsl lines

[Ben Steele]

You're still going to need something on the CPE side to detect a failed 
route unless you plan on running a routing protocol to your customers, I 
won't bother going into the Linux side of things seeing as this is a Cisco 
list but in my experience per-packet is only good if the lines are really 
well matched or you don't plan on running any/much real-time traffic over 
it, ie voip, unfortunately with the nature of dsl and its vulnerability to 
weather and various other nasties in your last mile copper run things just 
have to many variables for me to consider it a reliable inplementation for 
someone planning to use it with per-packet and real time traffic where out 
of order packets can become a problem.

Good to hear you are having success with it though.
