Hello, all!

We are using a ppp link to the internet over the gsm/gprs network. This
network assigns a IP Address from the 10.0.0.0/8 subnet and gives
access to the internet using NAT.

Over this link we build a VPN connection which assigns a address from
the same subnet to our device.

Since there is a certain risk to get the same address from the network
we want to assgn a fixed address to the local ppp-device in a way that
the peer still believes to talk to the address it assigned. As far as I
understand the ppp protocol this should be possible, but how?

Any help is very welcome!

With kind regards

Stephan Hoffmann
