Re: PPPoE vs. Bridged ADSL

We like PPPoE on the edge because we can use RADIUS to apply policy to the subscribers for bandwidth management, class-of-service, SNPs, etc. You probably have some of these features via your DSLAM, but we found it easier to do via RADIUS with a web based GUI for our provisioning folks. So if we need to snip someone's Internet and leave voice or VPN packets alone due to an abuse issue for example, we can apply the policy that references the appropriate ACL. George
