+1 here we do the same exact thing with our ftth and ont=B9s separate vlan
with h.248 gw=B9s sitting on it and you just point the profile of the voice
port to the gw.  There is a reason why they are doing things this way, as
current regulation does not force them to give you access to there fiber
network.
