Hobby horse: please make sure it support bridge mode? Those of us who want to put our own routers on the wire will hate you otherwise.
Why? As long as it can be a transparent router, why would it need to be a bridge?
Ask a Verizon FiOS customer who wants to run IPv4 VPNs.
He didn't say IPv6 only, right?
I have a couple of customers who can't get bridge mode on residence FiOS service, and therefore can't run their own routers to terminate IPsec.
If they could get routed static IPv4 rather than bridge, why wouldn't they be able to terminate IPSec VPNs? Note I did say TRANSPARENT router. That would mean no NAT and routed static IPv4. Owen
