DHCP Authentication

That's what makes protocol wars so much fun. With enough options, almost
any protocol can do almost anything.
As you know, I did my best to kill PPPOx at an ISP and in the IPTV
architecture several vendors were selling at the time. I still
think that sometimes DHCP is the answer, and other times PPPOx is the
answer, but you can usually make either work if necessary. And even
though I chose DHCP, the vendor needed to fix several things. I haven't
kept track if all of them were really fixed.
