Re: DSL "aggregation".... NO

You can balance over DSL by putting different L2TPv3 tunnels over each
physical device and agg it at someplace with real connections and
such. It's possible to do it with GRE or OpenVPN too, but much less
classy.

Clearly the downside of this is that you need an agg machine on your
end somewhere, but it gives you lots of control for sure.

Group,

Since I'm told that DSL aggregation / mux is currently not possible, we
are looking at doing stream splitting via a technology like FatPipe
uses. Anyone have this in production usage? Or something similar?

Cisco has offered some ways to split via CEF, but most DSL carriers do
not have this turned on / available.



Thank you,
