Devil's advocate here. There was an earlier thread that had a reasonable
scenario. If you run something like MRTG to monitor multiple leased lines
with ppp connections, you would want to keep the devices assigned to
specific lines constant. Dynamically reassigning them on reconnects would
mess up your stats.
The answer would be to modify the ppp source or use ip-up to monitor your
stats.
