The patches in the PR add a new config var that allows the user to work around a bug either in FreeBSD's LQR or a bug in Juniper's LQR implementation. Its not clear who is at fault. Without this fix, PPPoE users in Canada and parts of Europe cannot use LCP ECHOs to monitor link status. ---Mike -------------------------------------------------------------------- Mike Tancsa, tel +1 519 651 3400 Sentex Communications, mike@sentex.net Providing Internet since 1994 www.sentex.net Cambridge, Ontario Canada www.sentex.net/mike
