Protocol Bindings parameters
Digi routers can be configured to allow using different protocols on different interfaces. The process
of selecting which protocol to use on a particular interface is referred to as binding. For example,
you could use Serial ( ASY ) port 0 for an ISDN B channel X.25 connection, where P AD 0 is bound to
Serial 0 (assuming that PAD 0 is the required PAD). To complete this example it is also necessary to
associate the PAD with a LAPB instance using the appropriate page. Protocols are bound to serial
interfaces using a table with a drop-down list box for selecting the protocol and a drop-down list for
selecting the serial port.
By default, if no specific protocol is bound to a serial interface, a PPP instance is automatically
associated with that port. This means that PPP is treated as the default protocol associated with the
serial ports.

Delete
When a binding has been added, it appears in the table and a Delete button is enabled in the
right-hand column. Click this button to remove the binding. Note that the binding does not
come into force until the Apply button at the bottom of the page has been clicked.
