This is probably a new feature request, but is this possible to create
some kind of VirtualTemplate interface like it is in Cisco access

link together with VirtaulTemplate interface in one vpdn-group config
like this:
And all the ppp interfaces for all users will use this configuration
as a template.
Yes, I am thinking about that. That is not trivial change. It will require changing all internal model from static to the dynamic one. But that change also should give many
other bonuses so I would like to try.

One of problems is more or less new config file syntax required. I have very limited cisco experience, so it is difficult for me to adopt their model to mpd, but I would not
like to reinvent a wheel. I will be grateful for any ideas/examples of how do you see that.



I am not sure that people know how to use the 'include' syntax in mpd.

i have not used it for a long time but I do remember that my setups were very simple,
because I used a kind of template entry to hold all teh common stuff.

ah here it is.. in this example I use 'load' to save lots of typing..



tun_standard:
set link yes acfcomp protocomp
set link no pap
set link no chap
set link keep-alive 2 15
set link mru 900
set link mtu 900
# set link bandwidth 1440000
############### per-link settings #################
vpn-site1:
new -i ng0 vpn-site1 site1-ISP1 site1-ISP2
set iface addrs 10.12.1.24 10.12.1.10
set iface route 192.168.10.0/24
set ipcp ranges 10.12.1.24/32 10.12.1.10/32
load vpn_standard
link site1-ISP1 load tun_standard
link site1-ISP2
load tun_standard
open
vpn-site2:
new -i ng1 vpn-site2 site2-ISP1 site2-ISP2
set iface addrs 10.12.1.24 10.12.1.20
set iface route 192.168.20.0/24
set ipcp ranges 10.12.1.24/32 10.12.1.20/32
load vpn_standard
link site2-ISP1 load tun_standard
link site2-ISP2
load tun_standard
open

But what if you want to support one thousand of concurrent connections?
