Actually no. None of the PM async serial ports support MP.

But they will do Multiline Load Balancing, which is similar. Livingston
developed that before MP existed. You just need to bring up multiple links
and assign them all the same IP endpoints.

Note - you cannot do this across chassis, MCPPP only works with MP not
MLLB.

There is no limit on the number of ports to use in MLLB, up to the number in
the chassis.
