Once upon a time mikel@sales.net.au shaped the electrons to say...
>At their end is a Linux box with a couple of 16550's and a P90.
>At my end is a PM2ER-10 running ComOS 3.3.2
>Can the Livingston's do this? If so...

We can load balance from Livingston to Livingston with a proprietary
system. (ISDN has MP, but this isn't ISDN.)

Oddly enough (or not, knowing the community) some Linux hackers put the
capability to load balance with a Livingston box into the pppd on Linux.

So yes, the customer can do this.

Nothing special is needed on the PortMaster. Beats me what you do on the
Linux side though.
