DI-206 ISDN Remote Router

Configuration and Management

107

Items in the Multi-Link PPP Configuration window are described as
follows:

Bandwidth on Demand – Enables or disables BOD. When

enabled, BOD will manage the implementation of MLPPP using the
parameters defined in this window.

BOD Criteria – Either TX, RX or TX+RX, where TX is Transmit

and RX is Receive. The parameter defined here is used when
monitoring the BOD High Threshold and BOD Low Threshold.

BOD High Threshold (%) – (0 to 100) The throughput value as a

percentage of total bandwidth which will cause the next ISDN port
having Multi-Link PPP enabled to dial up and add bandwidth to the
connection. This value, however, must be constantly exceeded for
the time designated in the Add Bandwidth Delay field before the
next ISDN port dials out.

BOD Low Threshold (%) – (0 to 100) The throughput value as a

percentage of total bandwidth which will cause the highest numbered
ISDN port in the MLPPP bundle to hang up, thus subtracting
bandwidth from the connection. Before actually hanging up however,
the throughput must be below this value for the time designated in
the Subtract Bandwidth Delay field.

Add Bandwidth Delay (sec) – (0 to 300) The amount of time in

seconds the router will wait and sample the BOD Criteria before
adding bandwidth once the throughput exceeds the BOD High
Threshold. This prevents costly bandwidth from being unnecessarily
added due to temporary bursts in traffic.
