Well you could have a backup peer defined for the p2p pseudowire right? So in case the primary BGN fails the PW is reestablished with the backup BNG. Or alternatively you could have the DSLAM(s) hooked up to a virtual switching domain localy and have PWs to connect several remote BNGs with the local virtual switching instance/domain. However if the BNGs also need to talk to each other for some PPPoE state sync than VPLS is the only way I guess.

And to mitigate single points of failure. I believe Juniper might just be looking into this scenario as well. _______________________________________________ juniper-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/juniper-nsp _______________________________________________ juniper-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/juniper-nsp
