You're putting Juniper ERXs at customer houses? Really? I'd expect to
see DSL/Cable drops which will utilize cheap end CPE (most of which
don't support IPv6 hardly at all).
No, we're not putting ERX's at people's homes ... not sure where you got
that from? What I was saying is that if you're running PPPOE then you have
have somewhere in the service provider network to "terminate" the
sessions....
