You are correct, the addresses will essentially just "appear" on the pfSense endpoint. All you need to do to make use of them is create an "other" type virtual IP (hey, for all those wondering what the hell other was for...this is it!) as the traffic is already routed to you and you just need pfSense to handle it. FWIW, before my last move, I had exactly this type of setup from SBC. --Bill On 10/30/06, Sam Newnam <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > > I'm dealing with this small town ISP on a project and they informed the > customer that they can run multiple IP's over PPPoE.
