Choose 2 to allow both telephone lines to be used for dial-in calls, either by a single user making a Multilink PPP call, or by two users dialing in simultaneously. 4 In the Allow Multilink field, check the box to allow both telephone lines to be used by a single caller for a Multilink call, or leave the box unchecked to allow only one line per dial-in call.

Multilink PPP is disabled by default. In order for Multilink to work, the Channels allocated for Dial-In field must be set to 2.
