So it SHOULD work with the HOST-UNIQUE tag, especially if they are teh same router type. the SPEC says it "MUST" support and return that tag.. Maybe the system was just down at the time you first tested.. did you try the old ng_pppoe again? The test system in Montreal was down for hours (in some cases days) at a time. if you compile the base netgraph (and the socket type) into the system, then you can use kldload and kldunload to load and unload the pppoe node (but remove the 'dependency' line fom the pppoe module's makefile. it triggers a bug in the module code) > > 23:23:19.005733 0:c0:f0:22:35:e1 ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff 8863 24: > > 1109 0000 0004 0101 0000 > > 23:23:19.728640 0:10:67:0:3c:ee 0:c0:f0:22:35:e1 8863 61: > > 1107 0000 0029 0101 0000 0102 001d 3133 > > 3034 3130 3439 3931 3833 3632 2d73 6d73 > > 322d 746f 726f 6e74 6f36 3301 0100 00 > > > > As you can see, I can now elicit a PADO from Sympatico.
