Inverse Mux (Multiplex) Configuration —
This function lets you balance your LAN traffic
between two T1 WAN ports, and is used with Point to Point Protocol (PPP) or HDLC protocol.
QuickSET automatically sets the WAN Frame Type to Encapsulated Ethernet when you use the
Inverse Mux configuration. (Note: the CSX200 does not support the IMUX function).
When you select the Inverse Mux check box, bridging, IP routing, and IPX routing functions are
disabled. The WAN device at the other end of the WAN link(s) must be a Cabletron Systems
device, capable of receiving the balanced Inverse MUX WAN traffic.
