MPP Configuration

Configuring One Channel to Dial
Dynamic Allocation
Quick Increase in Bandwidth

This is for enabling the Pipeline 25, 50, or 100 to use one B channel and dynamic bandwidth allocation.

Make sure you are in the Main Edit Menu.

  • Select Ethernet
  • Select Connections
  • Select Net

Under Ethernet, Connections, the Net menu should look like:

---------LI00xxx EDIT----------- |20-101 | | Station=Net | | Active=Yes | | Encaps=MPP | | Dial #= | | Route IP=Yes | | Bridge=No | | Dial brdcast=N/A | |>Encaps options... | | Ip options... | | Ipx options... | | Session options... | | Telco options... | | | | | | | | |

Go under the Encaps options and make sure the values are set to the following:

------ LI00xxx EDIT ----------- ------ LI00xxx EDIT ------------- |90-101 | |90-101 | | Encaps options... | | Encaps options... | | >Send Auth=PAP ^| | >Sec History=15 | | Send PW=******* | | Add Pers=5 | | Recv PW= | | Sub Pers=10 | | Base Ch Count=1 | | Target Util=70 | | Min Ch Count=1 | | Idle Pct=0 | | Max Ch Count=2 | | MRU=1524 | | LQM=No | | LQM Min=600 | | LQM Max=600 | | Link Comp=Stac | | VJ Comp=Yes | | Dyn Alg=Quadratic | | Sec History=15 v| | | | |

Note: Please see Recommended Usage

The only field that should be changing should be the Dyn Alg field. By changing it to Quadratic, the Ascend will treat more recent samples of bandwidth usage more significantly, and it will increase bandwidth usage at a quadratic rate.

You can also change the Dyn Alg field to Linear which will give recent samples of usage more weight, and will increase bandwidth allocation at a linear rate.

If you need to allocate bandwidth at a slower rate, please see:
Dynamic Allocation: Constant Increase in Bandwidth

If you would like to have both channels dial up whenever you connect, please see:
Configuring Two B Channels

Once you have done this, you will need to break your current connection and dial in again.

For full configuration information please see Configuring the Pipeline.
