<div><p>Select this line service to define a PPP line that is associated
with an analog modem. This option is also used for leased lines where a modem
is not required. The PPP connection profile always uses the same iSeries™ server
communications port resource.</p>
<div class="section"><p>An analog single line, if required, might be configured as <tt>shared</tt> between
an answer profile and a dial profile. The dynamic resource sharing is a new
function designed to enhance resource usability. Until V5R2, the modem resources
were committed as soon as the profile using it was started. This was limiting
the user to one resource per session, even if the resource was in the passive
wait state. Now, new sharing rules apply when a specific resource has been
accessed. There are two cases: first, a dial profile was started before an
answer profile; second, an answer profile was started before a dial profile.
The assumption is that the resource sharing is enabled. In the first case,
the dial profile that was started will successfully connect. The answer profile
that was started second, will wait for the line to become available. After
the dial connection was ended, the answer profile will request the line, and
will start. In the second case, the answer profile that was started will wait
for the incoming connections. Unless an incoming connection was made, the
dial profile that was started second, will "borrow" the line from the answer
profile, which will "lend" the line. The outgoing connection will then be
established. After the connection was ended, the dial profile will return
the line to the answer profile which will again be ready to accept incoming
connections. To enable the sharing function, click the modem tab for a switched
line description, and select <span class="uicontrol">Enable Dynamic Resource Sharing</span>.</p>

<div class="section"><p>Single line service is also used for L2TP (virtual line) and PPPoE
(virtual line) connection types. For L2TP (virtual line) connection types,
there is no hardware communications port resource used with the single line.
Rather, the single line used with an L2TP connection is <em>virtual</em> in
that there is no physical PPP hardware that is required to establish the tunnel.
The single line used with a PPPoE connection is also virtual in that it provides
a mechanism for treating a physical Ethernet line as if it were a PPP line
that supports remote connections. The PPPoE virtual line is bound to a physical
Ethernet line and is used to support PPP protocol data transfers over the
Ethernet LAN connection to a DSL modem. </p>
