♦
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 WAN 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 WAN port dials out.
♦
BOD Low Threshold (%) – (0 to 100) The throughput value as a
percentage of total bandwidth which will cause the highest
numbered WAN 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.
♦
Subtract Bandwidth Delay (sec) – (0 to 300) The amount of time
in seconds the router will wait and sample the BOD Criteria
before subtracting bandwidth once the throughput falls below the
BOD Low Threshold. This prevents bandwidth from being
unnecessarily subtracted due to temporary lulls in traffic.
The example Multi-link PPP settings shown in the Multi-Link PPP
Configuration window above assumes that WAN 1 and WAN 2 each
have a 64kbps connection configured to dial up to the Internet. When
WAN 1 receives a packet destined for the Internet it will dial the ISP
and establish a connection. If the total throughput on WAN 1 (TX +
