Quick report on L2 experiments.

I have VPLS working, with a few caveats, on both 7000s and 8000s.

I still can't get a tunneled packet larger than (S1 interface - 74 bytes).
For now, this is 1496-74=1422.

UE management IP returns pings *up to 1496*, even with DNF.

Oddly, if the UE WAN MTU is set higher than ~(S1-28)<=1468, the UE
management IP *stops* responding up to 1496, and cuts off at 1460.

I've successfully run PPOE from Mikrotik -> Mikrotik, with MRRU, inside the
L2 tunnel. Not a huge amount of extra overhead.

HOWEVER, I have completely failed to get a non-Mikrotik PPPoE client
working over the tunnel. Packets leave the server (upstream) but don't
actually reach the client downstream. Has anyone ever seen anything like
this?
