Are you not going to use their supplied router? We have several of these
lines in place and I just use their Netopia routers for the PPPoE stuff with
an OpenBSD bridging firewall between the router and our systems.
I've never used PPPoE on OpenBSD but it should be fairly easy to replace the
SBC equipment with an OpenBSD box. Get the WAN IP from SBC's tech, or from
their provided router, use that IP for the external interface, and use the
gateway IP, or one of the other IPs for the internal interface.

this is trivial to do. I run SBC static and use OpenBSD for PPPoE and pf.
I have servers and clients. It all runs good.
Email me offline if you have specific questions and check out
