Ethernet over ADSL: Difference between revisions

Generally only features that either require support locally would be offered, such as Power over Ethernet (source or sink) and Synchronous Ethernet, perhaps driven from the national ISDN master timing sources.
 
Also, if this CPE is mounted externally, the ISP can repair it without incurring a failed visit. VLAN and Jumbogram services can provide access to multiple routers, multiple ISP or even direct access to an Internet exchange peering LAN from home. As long as the usersubscriber is not required to run PPPoEPPP to talk to the ISP provided equipment then the service is stateless and there are no obscure authentication problems to be had.
 
This does not preclude the subscriber connecting their own firewall or router between the CPE and their other equipment, and arranging for several blocks of address space to be routed to it for assignment deeper in their network, and can work well.
