Hi,

Where can I find info about DSLAM security.

DSL-modem may have for example firewall, VLAN, DMZ, NAT etc that gives
more security to the network, but what kind of security does the DSLAM
give?

- B

??

What kind of security does an ethernet switch provide?

Thats about what you are asking.

Once you get the DSL cells back into layer-3 somewhere, that device
at the ISP may give some sort of protection, but each ISP has their
own security policies.

Nothing happens down at the DSLAM level. Its cell in, cell out. Not
much more logic than that.
