	Neil,
	my first intention was to use WRS and BoD, but thanks to your
	clarification, I've understood that with BoD I'll have the
	feature of line backup (restoral) too.

	I've not completely clear how to configure the boundle:

	>>*t 6
	>>Config>set data multi 1

	>>command. Then configure the link as you would a dial circuit,

	>>Config> net 1
	>>PPP Multilink Protocol user configuration
	>>MP Config>link
	>>Link 101 (MP Dial Circuit): CSR    0, vector,   0
	>>MP Config>link 101
	>>Link configuration
	>>Link Config>lis

	>>Base net:       1
	should be 2, the ISDN interface ?

	>>Destination name:       out
	should be ISDN address assigned name to call to activate the line
	added with Config> add ISDN  ?

	>>Inbound dst name:       in
	as early for the incoming call ?

	>>Outbound calls          allowed
	>>Inbound calls           allowed
	>>SelfTest Delay Timer = 150 ms
	>>Send Line ID:           NO

	More: how to add to the boundle the second B channel of ISDN, let's
	say when the total throughput reach the 70% of 128K of the WAN line 
	(64K) + the first B channel (64K) ?

	On the man I red that only one link must activate the ISDN call, is
	this correct ?

	On the SPD is written that "PPP or CHAP security must be used for
	both dynamic configuration". Where dynamic configuration, in this
	case, is intended the aggregation of a primary leased line brought
	up on restart and one or two additional B channels of ISDN brough up
	by BoD as needed. Is this a requirement or not ?

	Many thanks for your aid
	Ciao Fabio

<< >>Base net:	1

Yes

<< >>Destination name:	   out
<< should be ISDN address assigned name to call to activate the line
<< added with Config> add ISDN ?

Yes

<< >>Inbound dst name:	   in
<< as early for the incoming call ?

Yes

<< More: how to add to the boundle the second B channel of ISDN, let's say
<< when the total throughput reach the 70% of 128k of the Wan line (^$K) +
<< the first B channel (64K) ?

By setting the "Max links" parameter to 3 eg.

MP Config> set mp
Base Links [1]?
Max Links [2]? 3    <----
Bod threshold: [70]?
Bod sample time [30]?
Bod base link line speed [64000]?
Bod add link persistence [5]?
Bod delete link persistence [10]?
Assign default destination address name [out]?
MP Config>

Then when you use the "link" command you will see two links, ie

MP Config>link
Link 101 (MP Dial Circuit): CSR		0, vector 0
Link 102 (MP Dial Circuit): CSR		0, vector 0

you should then configure this second link in the same way as the first.

<< On the man I red that only one link must activate the ISDN call, is 
<< that correct ?

Either end of the bundle can initiate the call for the additional
bandwidth.

<< On the SPD is writtem that "PPP or CHAP security must be used for
<< both dynamic configuration". Where dynamic configuration, in this
<< case, is intended the aggregation of a primary leased line brought
<< up on restart and one or two additional B channels of ISDN brought up
<< by BOD as needed. Is this a requiement or not ?

I am not sure that I fully understand the question. You don't have to use 
PAP or CHAP on the connection, but if you configure it, it will be 
negotiated on all links which make up the bundle each time they come up.
