TW-H6W1IR ISDN Remote Router
Configuration and Management 101
Before implementing MLPPP on the TW-H6W1IR, please ensure that
your ISP or the device to which you are connecting supports, and is
configured for MLPPP.
MLPPP can be implemented in two ways, dynamically through the use
of the Bandwidth on Demand (BOD), and statically. BOD causes the
second ISDN port to place a call and add bandwidth to the ISDN
connection when the BOD High Threshold is exceeded for the Add
Bandwidth Delay period. Bandwidth can also be subtracted when
ISDN throughput falls below the BOD Low Threshold and Subtract
Bandwidth Delay parameters. Thus, BOD economizes MLPPP by
maintaining only the bandwidth needed.
A static implementation of MLPPP is achieved when BOD is disabled
but the ISDN ports have Multi-Link enabled. In this case, when the
two ISDN ports have established a connection, the router will check to
see if they are connected to the same source and whether the source
supports MLPPP. If both conditions are met, the router will
automatically bundle the two links together as an MLPPP connection.
Choosing Multi-Link PPP Configuration displays the following
