3.4 Configuring MLPPP

MLPPP is a communication protocol that enables a

computer to use two point-to-point ports as a single port of

greater bandwidth. Point-to-point protocol (PPP) is a full-

duplex protocol that uses a serial interface for

communication between systems. PPP offers error

correction and can handle synchronous as well as

asynchronous data. For example, if you combine two

modems and connect to the Internet then the data transfer

rate increases. Similarly, MLPPP increases the data transfer

rate.

The data transfer rates of the two links should be similar.

Otherwise, the slower link decreases the overall throughput.

After installing MLPPP drivers, you can configure MLPPP in

OMC. For more details on the installation procedure, please

refer to “OMC Installation Guide- Appendix A”. You

configure MLPPP for each trunkport by assigning timeslots.

LNote: You should always configure MLPPP from OMC

only. Failure to do so may introduce inconsistencies.

Perform the below steps to configure MLPPP:

1. Open the BSS node in the modify mode.

2. Right-click IPConfig and click Add MLPPP.
