That means that they have new gear with new stacks, so we simply do
not have the replace existing DHCP clients problem. Typically
existing clients use PPPoE and so their is no problem for them either.
Did thank clear it up?
So it sounds like what you're proposing is that people who use this
new service will have to connect to the network through a network
address translator box, which will do DHCP to the center with the
authentication information you've described, and the actual equipment
that they own will only do DHCP to the NAT box, and thus won't need
to be modified?
