You would have to implement bridging via PPP, which is different from what PPP normally does (routing) but there exist standards for doing it. Instead of using MPD, it might be simpler to bridge via UDP packets. E.g. combine ng_bridge with ng_ksocket. You could secure this via IPSec. -Archie __________________________________________________________________________ Archie Cobbs * Packet Design * http://www.packetdesign.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-net" in the body of the message
