A Service Provider (SP) authentication method includes receiving a message from a subscriber-premises device, the message being compatible with an authentication protocol and being transported from the subscriber-premises device to a u-PE device operating in compliance with an IEEE 802.1x compatible protocol. Access to the SP network is either allowed or denied access based on a logical identifier contained in the message. It is emphasized that this abstract is provided to comply with the rules requiring an abstract that will allow a searcher or other reader to quickly ascertain the subject matter of the technical disclosure. It is submitted with the understanding that it will not be used to interpret or limit the scope or meaning of the claims. 37 CFR 1.72(b).
