Here are some extra bits and pieces worthy of note.

The linux PPPoE Daemon

You can get PPPoE to display all the Access Concentrators who answer the PPPoE Active Discovery

Initiation:

[root@linux_client michael]# pppoe -I eth1 -A

--------------------------------------------------

Got a cookie: 00 00 33 2f

Access-Concentrator: -58245394

AC-Ethernet-Address: 00:00:cd:05:01:ff

--------------------------------------------------

If you get more than one PPPoE Active Discovery Offer, you can take that information and manually

select which Access Concentrator you want to respond to. For example:

[root@linux_client michael]# pppd pty 'pppoe -I eth1 -C -58245394'

You can always see other PPPoE options by consulting the manual:

[root@linux_client michael]# man pppoe
