Hi Jan, In your letter dated Wed, 29 Mar 2017 08:14:59 +0200 you wrote: >You would be surprised how many residential customers still have CPE in >bridge mode and are connecting to PPPoE service using Windows (or any >other OS) PC using a PPPoE dialer, some of them even using multiple >parallel PPPoE sessions from multiple computers sitting on the same >network. I literally do not know of a single case where somebody around me was running ppp on Windows 7 (or later) or on a recent version of MacOS. That just doesn't seem to happen around here (in .nl). Many people here connect a Linux box using PPPoE, but in that case the Linux box is configured as a router. Note that the ISP I'm using hands out FritzBox CPEs which officially do not even support bridging a VDSL connection. So I'm very curious. Do ISPs officially support this? Are there ISPs that describe how to put a DSL model in bridge mode and the configure Windows 10 to connect? How does that work with iphones, android, etc. Do people bridge PPPoE to wifi and then run PPPoE on a phone or tablet? How did multiple sessions work with IPv4. Did every session get its own public IPv4 address using PPP IPCP? How does that work with the /64. Are multiple static /64s assigned to a particular customer? In the case of multiple /64s, do hosts have sufficiently stable PPPoE IDs that you can assign the right one to each host?
