I assume you're using MikroTik.
You can run multiple PPPoE servers on a single Ethernet segment. The client
will send its PPPoE Active Discovery Initiation (PADI) packet, and both servers
will reply with their PPPoE Active Discovery Offer (PADO). The client will then
select which AC it wants to

Typically in this scenario I would recommend one of two things:
1) Use an MPLS VLL/L2-psuedowire with a secondary failover endpoint on one
side.
Only some equipment vendors implement this (Juniper being one of them)
2) Use a PPPoE pado delay. Set one BRAS to be some decent amount high

Tom,
I agree that Linux works very well as a router, but it still doesn't
compare to a dedicated hardware platform (like Cisco) that was built
from the ground up to do nothing but routing. We purchased a used Cisco
12008 router about 1.5 years ago off ebay. They are very, very cheap...

Note: Quagga has been very reliable for quite some time now. Imagestream and
Vyatta both use Quagga. Both are great choices for BGP routers.
I personally use Mandrake (Mandriva) Linux with a slew of custom
modifications that we have made, loaded on SuperMicro, and then use latest
Quagga.

I loathe the idea of managing a *nix distro on a router (which is why we
use RouterOS now). Apparently I've had too much Tik-aid, because I had

bsdrp.org? or a full FreeBSD install?
If you mean like eth0.1 and eth0.2 then you need to use a vlan switch,
else once its on the wire, there is no way to know what comes from
who. It would be best to place another multi port router inline to
give you physical ports, or use vlans.

I haven't tried using MT for my eBGP feeds, but with so many people having
issues I'm not even interested in giving it a shot.
Buy a Cisco or Juniper. I've run BGP on refurbished Cisco 7500's and GSR's for
the past few years with zero issues. My routers have at least two eBGP peers,
full tables
Agreed. Breaking about once a month or possibly even more frequently than
that is what we started to see with one of our v3.30 BGP routers. This was
after flawless performance for many, many months. This is why we initially
felt it might be a hardware issue.
MikroTik Support response was simply
We use MT BGP internally on our network; not full feeds. 1400 routes on
one server. Works great for that; no reliability issues in every day
operation. No problems with 12 month uptimes. I have seen some minor
issues in 3.30 where if you remove a peer prior to disabling first, it
can jam things

Look into Imagestream for BGP. Very stable and less expensive than

This is exactly what I am concerned with.
