[c-nsp] Bridging over PPP

[Arie Vayner (avayner)]

Mike,

I am still not sure what your complete solution looks like... Any chance you could give us a bit more info? A diagram would be really nice.

The issue is that I would only have a multilink ppp bundle over T1's connecting the 7201 to the pop where the pppoe customers are. I don't see how I could connect the pppoe subscribers, with multilink ppp in the middle, to the 7201 and expect it to work. If you have an idea how this might fly please let me know. I think gert (thanks) had the right idea with mpls, likely too much trouble however.
