number first.

 

 

 

If the Primary Phone number is busy or does not answer,

 

 

 

your Prestige will call the Secondary Phone number if

 

 

 

available. Once connected, your Prestige will use the

 

 

 

BACP (Bandwidth Allocation Control Protocol) to

 

 

 

establish the second B-channel if Multilink PPP is

 

 

 

enabled, and the Remote Node supports MP and BACP.

 

 

 

Some areas require dialing the pound sign # before the

 

 

 

phone number for local calls. A # symbol may be

 

 

 

included at the beginning of the Primary Phone number

 

 

 

or Secondary Phone number as required.

your Prestige will forward any packet that it does not

 

 

 

 

 

recognize to this Remote Node; otherwise, the

 

 

 

unrecognized packets are discarded.

 

 

 

The disadvantage of bridging is that it usually generates

 

 

 

large amounts of traffic.
