Since we are talking about converting PPPoE customers to this
new scheme, *something* at the home site has to change.
My guess would be that most likely change would be at the
DSL box that you get from the provider. If it does 802.1X,
PANA, or DHCP Auth from that point to the network does
not matter from the home user's perspective.
