Don't forget to consider how you could do this with netgraph.
We already have ppp over ethernet and other transports using netgraph,
(and mpd (in ports) already uses teh netgraph kernel ppp stack)
The hardest part from my perspective is finding the info for the drivers
for the ATM
(I assume you mean ATM as used in DSL) DSL cards.
We already have some ATM support so it would be a case of just
working out how to best hook it all together, preferably with netgraph
as the framework
to do so.
Who knows about the ATM stuff in the kernel?
