Re: Yeah, right. It IS a good deal...

Good God...please...understand that one, PPP is inherent to PPPoA, and two, authentication is part of PPP. You don't use a separate PVC or something for authentication, and another for your data; it all goes to/comes from the same place. It's just that auth packets have a different type identifier than IP packets. I think that technically, it's possible to send ATM cells to different places (e.g., along a different VPI/VCI), but that it's extraordinarily unlikely to make such distinctions based on PPP packet type. Heck, I've been wrong before, but I don't think so on this one.
