phone numbers to be exchanged when more bandwidth is needed and mem-
ber links to be dropped when bandwidth is to be decreased.  When this item 
is set to On, BACP is negotiated with the PPP peer.  When Off, the Express 
XL/XLT will not run BACP/BAP but dynamic bandwidth can still be operat-
ed.

Certain rules for bandwidth-on-demand apply, depending on whether BACP 
is negotiated. If BACP is not negotiated, the originator of the call will perform 
the dynamic bandwidth adjustments on its own. If BACP is negotiated, the de-
cisions are made on either side but the call is always from the originator.
