To answer this part more specifically, from "man ppp":
Multi-link capabilities are enabled using the ``set mrru'' command (set
maximum reconstructed receive unit). Once multi-link is enabled, ppp
will attempt to negotiate a multi-link connection with the peer.
[ ... ]
Armed with this information, the following configuration might be used:
mp:
set timeout 0
set log phase chat
set device /dev/cuad0 /dev/cuad1 /dev/cuad2
set phone "123456789"
set dial "ABORT BUSY ABORT NO\sCARRIER TIMEOUT 5 \"\" ATZ \
OK-AT-OK \\dATDT\\T TIMEOUT 45 CONNECT"
set login
set ifaddr 10.0.0.1/0 10.0.0.2/0 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0
set authname ppp
set authkey ppppassword
set mrru 1500
clone 1,2,3 # Create 3 new links - duplicates of the default
link deflink remove # Delete the default link (called ``deflink'')
Note how all cloning is done at the end of the configuration. Usually,
the link will be configured first, then cloned. If you wish all links to
be up all the time, you can add the following line to the end of your
configuration.
link 1,2,3 set mode ddial
If you want the links to dial on demand, this command could be used:
link * set mode auto
Links may be tied to specific names by removing the ``set device'' line
above, and specifying the following after the ``clone'' command:
link 1 set device /dev/cuad0
link 2 set device /dev/cuad1
link 3 set device /dev/cuad2
Use the ``help'' command to see which commands require context (using the
``link'' command), which have optional context and which should not have
any context.
You might also check the fine FreeBSD Handbook for examples, also...
