Introduction to Multilink PPP

Introduction to Multilink PPP - MLP

Multilink PPP (MLP), as defined in RFC 1990, is a variant of PPP used to aggregate multiple WAN links into one logical channel for the transport of traffic. It enables the load-balancing of traffic from different links and allows some level of redundancy in case of a line failure on a single link.

Multilink PPP (MP) or (MLP) provides an approach to increasing bandwidth. It allows multiple PPP links to form an MP bundle. After receiving a packet, MP segments (if the packet is large) the packet into fragments and distributes them over multiple PPP links to the remote end. After the remote end receives these fragments, it assembles them into a packet and passes the packet to the network layer.

MP functions to:

l Increase bandwidth, or dynamically increase/reduce bandwidth in combination with dial control center (DCC)

l Load sharing

l Backup

l Decrease transmission delay through fragmentation

MP can work on any physical or virtual interfaces encapsulated with PPP, such as serial, ISDN BRI/PRI, and PPPoX (PPPoE, PPPoA, or PPPoFR). However, a multilink bundle is preferred to include only one type of interfaces.

Linux File and Directory Permissions

file & directory protection is a essential of any OS and Linux OS is no exception for it! These authorizations allow you to choose exactly who can access your files & directory, providing an overall improved system security. There was one of the major flaws in the older Windows operating-system where, by standard, all users can see each other people's information (Windows 95, 98, Me). For overcoming it, editions of the Windows based computer system such as NT, 2000, XP and 2003 lot more security features added. They fully support file & directory permissions, just as Linux system has since the beginning. Together, we'll now assess a directory listing from our Lab Linux system hosting server, to help us understand the information provided. a simple 'ls' command will give you the file and directory listing within a given directory, including the option '-l' will display number of new areas that we are going to discuss here:

How to create a Hirens Boot CD 15.2 USB Disk

Hiren’s BootCD (HBCD) is a bootable CD that contains a set of tools that can help users to fix their computer if their system fails to boot.
