I have a netscreen on order to test with, as the one I was using is on a customers' production network. When I get the chance, I will get to experiment with the Netscreen and PPPoE on the smartbridge airbridges, and I can get a packet dump at that time. Possibly Netscreen is not following the RFC? Who knows, I had issues with some YDI equipment and PPPoE for a while until they got there software fixed. We are terminating to a Redback SMS 1800, no relay here. We do have a leg of our network terminating to a Cisco 7206 and then l2tped back to the Redback, but have had absolutely no issues with and PPPoE clients there on cable and DSL networks.
