Hi James,
Thanks for the info ..
Well I am looking for PPPoA explicitly, which basically uses
pppoatm.ko-driver module and pppoatm.so-lib along with pppd-deamon.
As explained above is being my client setup which I execute on, Now my
trouble/doubts is How/where to run PPPoA-server and on what device, Is
there a standard device/software available (Such as DSLAM, ISAM..etc).
Which can respond to the PPPoA-client (linux-box) packet and establish
the ppp-interface.
Pls do let me know any possible info related to this. Secondly also
any means of server configuration details.
Well I coated this (PADI, PADO,...) because, wanted to know does PPPoA
also follows these message sequence or it has new set of sequence ?
Thanks again,
Arun
