      Thanks for a great firewall.

      I'm using a very recent build of 2.0 aa on FreeBSD 7.2. I installed ng_tcpmss.ko to overcome the PPPoE dial out issue.

      What I want to do is connect to 3 different ISP (PPPoE) accounts via DSL. The default account on WAN, an account with specific routing (local traffic) on OPT1, and account using specific ports (p2p & usenet) on OPT2.

      My DSL Modem (in bridge mode) is on interface le1, and this is the parent interface for VLAN1 and VLAN2, which then become the network ports for OP1 (le1_vlan1) and OPT2 (le_vlan2).

      OPT1 and OPT2 are enabled with PPPoE and with valid account login details.

      So far so good. Processes for pppoe1 and pppoe2 are running. They appear in ifconfig (but without IP and gateway addresses) . In /var/etc mpd_opt1.conf and mpd_opt2.conf look perfect - similar to mpd_wan.conf.

      While WAN works fine and dials out, I cannot bring up OPT1 and OPT2 from Status>Interfaces

      On the dashboard, Opt 1 and Opt2 are shown, but the with red x's signifying that they are disabled.

      Questions:

      1. Is what I'm attempting feasible?
      2. Why don't OPT1 and OPT2 make the connections like WAN does?
      3. Is there anything I can I do to make this work?
