Hi everyone,
I'd like a bit of advice on how i can set up multiplexing modems with ppp
if i may.
What i have to do is as follows. We have some presentations that are to be
held in a few days and they need a network connection. Unfortunately the
building they're to be held in have NO network connections at all, bit of
an oversite on the planners part i think.... anyway i've been asked, along
with another technician here, to "weave our magic" and connect it up
temporarily. The nearest building is about 1/2 a kilometer away so running
a cable to another building is out. Tho we considered it just to see the
look on their faces *grin*, I wonder how much a 500 meter optical fibre
flylead costs....... :-]
At the moment we have 2 racks of modems there are 4 x 28800 bps and 4 x
33600 bps in each rack. They're communicating ok in leased line mode and i
can bring up ppp interfaces on each modem and ping the other end. The TD
and RD lights on all the modems flash so the ping is going over the right
connection.
What i want to do tho is to multiplex the ppp interfaces into one big
'pipe' and load share the traffic across the modems and hopefully get an
approximately 300k/second connection.
Anyone got any ideas/suggestions on doing this or where I should look for
info? I've looked in the howto's and i cant find anything. My offsider has
searched the 'net but couldn't find anything there either.
Any input would be greatly appreciated!
