The above was just one example. DSL bridge through a DSLAM using a Bridge Group at the PE with DHCP for IP Addressing so that telecommuters for an enterprise can get the same IP address wherther they are at work or at home or a SOHO office. IE: The DHCP server for that particular user is the actual enterprises Server > > 2. You do not have a CPE.

That's all what you need. >Also linux supports both GRE and vlans so you can easily use this as >solution as well. Chris>> Does not seem practical. Are you saying put a LINUX WS at each site? That eliminates the cost advantage of using Ethernet then doesn't it?? Also in the VLAN scenario would that not mean the clients Internet traffic could route back to the VPN path? (Note: If the client did nothing about it and was outsourcing the service to us the SP) _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp ------- The MPLS-OPS Mailing List Subscribe/Unsubscribe: http://www.mplsrc.com/mplsops.shtml Archive: http://www.mplsrc.com/mpls-ops_archive.shtml
