| MPPP This
is a standard communications protocol used over ISDN to bond separate
data-carrying B channels together to transfer data effectively through a
larger "pipe." Just as they can under PPP, dissimilar devices can
communicate over multilink PPP connections to access the Internet. MPPP
also allows both channels to be used for either voice or data
transmissions and supports dynamic bandwidth allocation. This means that
one of the two channels can be automatically dropped and reallocated for a
phone call when calls come in. Once a call has been completed, the channel
can be reconnected to continue data transfer over MPPP. |
