PPPoE Server in every RB or L2TP to main router ?

Hi!

Actually i’ve some RB750 running as PPPoE server using radius from main router for AAA.
Each RB750 has OSPF (with summarize) to propagate ptp routes.
All is working for now :slight_smile:

The question are…
¿Is this correct and optimum? (for example: how see all connected clients? Now, i’ve to connect to each router to see this…)
¿Maybe better do L2TP between RB750<->main_router and do PPPoE server here (in the main_router)?

Thanks!

Hello,

We have also PPPoE server on every AP, but we have in our central Radius server where we can track users.

I’m using Usermanager in RB450G.

How can i see all users/connected users?

Doing snmpwalk looking for interfaces is not very friendly…

Hello ajmacias,

I’m trying to build a configuration exactly like yours, meaning a number of customers (saying 64) connected to a RB750 by PPPoE which is connected by OSPF to a main core router.
I am curious about performance issues regarding RB750 CPU power. Is it able to handle that much PPPoE sessions? how about traffic shaping/QoS?
I see a lot of CPU usage with only a PPPoE session running bandwidth test and i am worried that RB750 is not capable to handle that much sessions in full production.
How many simultaneous PPPoE user sessions did you have at max per one single router-board? How did RB750 behave?

Regarding of how can you see active sessions, you can find them at http://ip_of_RB450G/userman, look at sessions section to check who is online.
