[RP-PPPoE] generating big number of pppoe sessions

[Zoran Bankovic]

EasyHorpak,

What is "pon" in your script?

Actually I need to test my RADIUS server performance.
For example 50% of my users (30000) lost electircity and when
electricity comes they are connecting to internet and I have a lot of
radius requests for short time.
I want to simulate that situation. A lot of different sessions and
user/pass requests.
I want to know how my radius server deals with it.
I am working for telecommunictaion company and this is not intended
for burte-force password attacks. :)

Thanks,
