DHCP Authentication
That's what makes protocol wars so much fun. With enough options, almost any protocol can do almost anything. As you know, I did my best to kill PPPOx at an ISP and in the IPTV architecture several vendors were selling at the time. I still think that sometimes DHCP is the answer, and other times PPPOx is the answer, but you can usually make either work if necessary. And even though I chose DHCP, the vendor needed to fix several things. I haven't kept track if all of them were really fixed.
