Re: pppoe server

This would be a very nice feature. Strict matching of the pppoe service field. I am trying to build a separate pppoe server for users with static ip addresses and can't do it nicely. I'd like to have a server that would only respond to users who enter 'static' into the service field.

I have the same problem.

Google 'lcp timeout'. Plenty of info there.

It seems that ppp-2.4.3 and ppp-2.4.4 conflicts with syslog where ppp-2.4.2 works fine.

I'd get rid of the dual gig-e feeds. The MT (as said before) wont pass 5 gig anyhow. What you are doing is bridging vlan1 and vlan2 together to create a network loop.

Are the gig-e links copper or fiber?
