Mpd-4.2 released.

[Miroslav Slavkov]

Maxim Zenin did some effort to create such templates. His work was done on 3.18 version of mpd mainly for PPPoE server usage.
You can see his work at http://www.foggy.ru/soft/mpd/
It may be useful for the future development.

  I think you can get a basic idea from this manual:
  http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/793/access_dial/vpdn-without-aaa.html
  It's a LAC-LNS scenario.
  
  Another examples could be found here:
  http://www.cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk801/tk703/tech_configuration_examples_list.html
  
  Also i forgot to mension it would be cool to see STAC compression support in
  future versions. Here in Ukraine we have at least one big telco that
  support it - people.net.ua
