ETHERNET EXTENDERS—CONFIGURATION GUIDE
42
In Figure 6-10, the Ethernet Extender data compression is set at LCB. In the remote unit the data
compression is set to Extended. Messages are sent between the 2 units, until a common data compression
mode is found.
• Multilink—This parameter determines if a line supports multilink PPP. You may choose between:
• Disabled—The line does not support multilink PPP.
• Bandwidth on Demand (BOD)—The first ISDN line functions according to the COD configuration.
Refer to Connection on Demand for more information. The second line is connected when the
traffic on the first line exceeds a set threshold. This option is available for ISDN only. Refer to Figure
5-12.
• Permanent—Both ISDN channels function simultaneously according to the Connection on Demand
parameters. Refer to Connection on Demand for more information.
Both BOD and Permanent setup enable multilink PPP support to this link.

Fine Tuning BOD
If you choose BOD, there are 2 parameters to configure:
• Sensibility Direction—Select this parameter to define the traffic direction to be counted in determining
whether to connect the second line. The direction can be:
• Transmit.
• Receive.
• Both.
• Sensibility Timeout—Select this parameter to define the time interval for the utilization count.
