    Can a failover interface be [safely] used PPPoE?

      If pfSense has dual path to a VLAN where a PPPoE bridge is, could these be added to a LAGG in failover config so it only takes one at a time? (and without bridging them).

      It's curious forecast today :)

      Missing something? Word endings, maybe? I included a free puzzle in this msg if you solv--okay, I'm lying. It's dyslexia, makes me do that, sorry! Just finish the word; they're rarely misspelled, just incomplete. Yeah-yeah-I know. Same thing.

        Scratch the PPPoE bridge, let's say ANY subnet is available through two very different paths that can't be LACPed but they nevertheless access the exact same broadcast domains. Could a LAGGs be use to apply the same sets of rules on "paired" interfaces? Is don't suppose it can also constantly evaluate network conditions to choose the best performing path either, is it? 🤓
