Hi,

So far so gut I launched the PPPoE server with the command line
"pppoe-server -C sandbox -L 192.168.121.254 -p /etc/ppp/ippool -m 1412 
-I eth1.10"
cat ippool says "192.168.121.1-100"

Well I changed the setup to let at least a single PPPoE Server catch the 
VLAN 10 tagged packages on either eth1 and eth1.10.
But the PPPoE server does to reply to them.
the VLAN devices are made with

"ip link add link eth1 name eth1.10 address 00:00:00:aa:bb:1a type macvlan".

Please can someone tell me what I am doing wrong?

Bests,
Heiko
