Allow L2TP to agreggate multiple PPP connections

Post by dyangol »

Dear all,

according to RFC 2661 a PPP connection can be encapsulated by L2TP even if it comes from other device than LAC. For instance, several residential routers are connected to a L2 (Ethernet), their PPPoE sessions reach L2TP LAC and it forwards PPP to some ISP's LNS. This feature allows the agregation of multiple PPP connections in a single tunnel, according to Broadband Forum LAA arquitecture, among others benefits.

This feature is implemented by MPD (FreeBSD) but apparently, not by accel-ppp. If so, think you it could be a convenient feature for accel-ppp? Could you provide some information about the best way to modify the code to do it?

Thanks
Dmitry
