Hi together,
I am planing to set up a new environment for my subscriber management, based on PPoE.
The main element of this environment should be two MX204 with two EX4600.
The MX204 should work as PPoE-Server for the customers, that are coming from POPs.
Because of the limited amount of ports, the EX4600 should be used to aggregate the connections to all POPs for the routers.
At the moment I am not sure, what would be the best way, to connect the EX4600 and the MX204 with each other, to set up a redundant PPPoE-Confg.
This means, that one MX204 should be holding all PPoE-Sessions at the time, but when it fails, the other MX204 should take over the session as fast as possible.
I thought about a connection with EVPN and VXLAN, maybe just for the routers or even with the switches.
I think, that I have to use an AE on every router to connect them with the switches.
In this case, the PPPoE-Config has to be applied to an underlying interface, that is an active-active AE in the background.
I already tried this, but I wasn't very succesful, configuring the AE as an underlying interface, while the configuration of a physical XE as underlying interface worked fine.
Maybe someone can help me with an idea for getting the PPoE-redundancy and configuring PPoE with an active-active AE as underlying interface.
Thanks in advance!
