Use OSPF on the Cisco and the PM3s, check out pmr.infinet.net for some
sample setups.
Use RADIUS for authentication, to set up your users subnets.
set user-netmask on ,on the PM3s, this will make the PM3 broadcast(or
whatever the correct term is for OSPF) the subnet of the dial-in.
set reported <IP> on the PM3s, that way any routers that need to know
the default on the other end(aka the PM3) can all use the same IP.
set endpoint <some 12 digit HEX number> on all the PM3s on the same
network, so that 128K dialups, can span across PM3s without any hassle.
I think that should cover you pretty well. If not, someone will correct
me. Check out the manual for the commands above for more info about them.
later
