Correct, but you can control what ip you hand out. So yes you can do a DMZ on that unit, just have to use the nat system .. no biggy, but yes, it can be a client and server.

It would have to hand out a different IP.

I want the Mikrotik to obtain a connection with a static IP from a PPPoE server on say Port1. I want it to act as a PPPoE server on Port2 and hand out that exact same IP with PPPoE to a client on Port2. If your wondering why its a PPPoE client router that will never redial if the connection is dropped and occasionally we need to update things or have a registration drop on the SM. Offered to do a DMZ but there not so open to that.
