[j-nsp] Junos BNG PPPoE inside a VPLS

[Adam Vitkovsky]

Well you could have a backup peer defined for the p2p pseudowire right? 
So in case the primary BGN fails the PW is reestablished with the backup
BNG. 
Or alternatively you could have the DSLAM(s) hooked up to a virtual
switching domain localy and have PWs to connect several remote BNGs with the
local virtual switching instance/domain. 
However if the BNGs also need to talk to each other for some PPPoE state
sync than VPLS is the only way I guess.

The reason for the VPLS use is that we have multiple BNG nodes that load
share the PPPoE sessions. And to mitigate single points of failure.

I believe Juniper might just be looking into this scenario as well.
