Ahh, OK - I understood that incorrectly. Not sure what the issue is between your
sytem and mine then.
I've done lots of reading regarding PPPoE and IPv6 and challenges are known. The
y are exacerbated by firewall rules that drop ICMP messages - since IPv6 routers
are not allowed to defrag packets (if I have read that correctly), so send back
an ICMP packet too big, which some intermediatories drop.
A common thread that I've also read, especially if your "data center" has multip
le inbound paths (ECMP) is the ICMP packet comes back via a different path and i
snt matched to the source, so is dropped.
Anyway, IPv4 works, so we can stick with that I guess.
