Hello all,
I'm sorry to be raising the old "multiple PPPoE sessions" thing again, but I'm stuck here. I've read FreeBSD can do it Linux etc. I've tried but tun1 doesn't get an address for some reason.
The NetScreen allows one to do the following:
"Adding Virtual Circuits
To add virtual circuits, you create subinterfaces to the ADSL interface. You can create up
to ten ADSL subinterfaces. For example, to create a new subinterface adsl1.1 that is
bound to the user-defined zone named “Corp1”:
WebUI
Network > Interfaces > New ADSL Sub-IF: Enter the following, and then click Apply:
Interface Name: adsl1.1
Zone Name: Corp1 (select)
CLI
set interface adsl1.1 zone corp1
save
You need to configure an ADSL subinterface in the same way as the main ADSL interface,
including setting the VPI/VCI values, as described in “Configuring the ADSL Interface”
on page 15. You configure an ADSL subinterface independently of the main ADSL
interface, that is, you can configure a different multiplexing method, VPI/VCI, and PPP
client on the subinterface than the main ADSL interface. You can also configure a static
IP address on a subinterface, even if the main ADSL interface does not have a static IP
address. Note that a subinterface and the main ADSL interface can use the same VPI/VCI
values if one interface is configured for PPPoA and the other for PPPoE and they both use
LLC multiplexing."
Am I right in saying the VCI/VPI, LLC & PPPoE will be the same? How does the PVC value work here? I'm not lazy in asking first & not willing to read, but I'm on a tight deadline here & need to get this to work.
Could someone please give me a working example of a FreeBSD or Linux implementation of this.
Thanks.
