|
<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>
