♦BOD Criteria – Either [TX], [RX] or [TX+RX], where TX is Transmit and RX is Receive. The parameter defined here is used when monitoring the BOD High Threshold and BOD Low Threshold.

♦BOD High Threshold (%) – (0 to 100) The throughput value as a percentage of total bandwidth which will cause the next WAN port having Multi-Link PPP enabled to dial up and add bandwidth to the connection. This value, however, must be constantly exceeded for the time designated in the Add Bandwidth Delay field before the next WAN port dials out.

♦BOD Low Threshold (%) – (0 to 100) The throughput value as a percentage of total bandwidth which will cause the highest numbered WAN port in the MLPPP bundle to hang up, thus subtracting bandwidth from the connection. Before actually hanging up however, the throughput must be below this value for the time designated in the Subtract Bandwidth Delay field.

♦Add Bandwidth Delay (sec) – (0 to 300) The amount of time in seconds the router will wait and sample the BOD Criteria before adding bandwidth once the throughput exceeds the BOD High Threshold. This prevents costly bandwidth from being unnecessarily added due to temporary bursts in traffic.

♦Subtract Bandwidth Delay (sec) – (0 to 300) The amount of time in seconds the router will wait and sample the BOD Criteria before subtracting bandwidth once the throughput falls below the BOD Low Threshold. This prevents bandwidth from being unnecessarily subtracted due to temporary lulls in traffic.

The example Multi-link PPP settings shown in the Multi-Link PPP Configuration window above assumes that WAN 1 and WAN 2 each have a 64kbps connection configured to dial up to the Internet. When WAN 1 receives a packet destined for the Internet it will dial the ISP and establish a connection. If the total throughput on WAN 1 (TX +
