Here is the IEEE 802.1 response to the DSL Forum liaison: (See: http://www.ieee802.org/1/files/public/minutes/2007-11-closing-plenary-slides.pdf Slide 55) "Thank you for your liaison re: Subscriber Authentication in DSL (May 25th 2007) http://www.ieee802.org/1/files/public/docs2007/liaison-dsl-forum-auth-for-wt146-0707.doc we would like to draw your attention to the possibility of using P802.1af in conjunction with P802.1aj to meet a number of your requirements.
