Connection List/PPP
The Express 4110/4120 supports the IETF standards for the Point-to-
Point Protocol. The PPP state machine running in the Express 4110/4120 
can be fine-tuned to support many applications that can be employed.  
The configurable items under this menu can be changed from their 
default values for special cases.
PPP/Multilink
Multilink PPP allows the two B-channels to be used together for 
increased bandwidth.
Multilink/Mode
Write security: 3; Read security: 5
When this item is set to On (def), Multilink PPP is negotiated with 
the PPP peer.  When Off, the Express 4110/4120 will only allow one 
B-channel for this connection.
Multilink/Fragment
Write security: 3; Read security: 5
When this item is set to Yes (def), the Express 4110/4120 will split 
outgoing packets greater than 128 bytes into two Multilink frag-
ments and simultaneously transmit them one per B-channel.  The 
receiving PPP peer will then reassemble them.  This decreases the 
transport delay.  However, some legacy equipment might have 
trouble handling fragmented packets, in which case this option 
should be set to No
Multilink/BACP
Write security: 3; Read security: 5
The Bandwidth Allocation Control Protocol (BACP) and Band-
width Allocation Protocol (BAP) are used to enhance Multilink PPP.  
Together, they allow phone numbers to be exchanged when more 
bandwidth is needed and member links to be dropped when band-
width is to be decreased.  When this item is set to On, BACP is 
negotiated with the PPP peer.  When Off, the Express 4110/4120 
will not run BACP/BAP but dynamic bandwidth can still be oper-
ated.
