Cisco 857 - PPPoA Half Bridge

$

Hi All,

I've got a Cisco 857 in use at home - currently doing NAT and working fine.

I am keen to try out a half-bridge setup to my firewall box to muck around. I understand that it's a waste of an awesome device etc.. just want to have a play.

I have done a bunch of reading and I can't find a definitive guide. I understand I need to use half bridge (with the 857 handling the PPPoA auth), but I can't find an example config (unless you count examples using isdn/serial interfaces/pppoe etc)

Do you just need to bridge Dialer0 and vlan1?

How does the firewall get the IP passed on? DHCP?

Keen for anyone with experience to post their experiences and a possible config.

(Just to be clear I'm fine with networking concepts and using the cli, just need some help with this particular situation).

Thanks!
