A multi-link suspension is a type of suspension design typically used in independent suspensions, using 3 or more lateral arms, and one or more longitudinal arms. These arms do not have to be of equal length, and may be angled away from their 'obvious' direction.
Typically each arm has a spherical joint (ball joint) or rubber bush at each end. Consequently they react loads along their own length, in tension and compression, but not in bending. Some multi-links do use a swing arm or wishbone, which has two bushes at one end.
On a front suspension one of the lateral arms is replaced by the tie-rod, which connects the rack or steering box to the wheel hub.
In order to simplify understanding it is usual to consider the function of the arms in each of three orthogonal planes.
Multilink does this by first being aware of all data references in all segments, and by adding padding data to the front and end of each code segment link to ensure that each segment refers to the same data at the same global offset.
Multilink does some renaming of the files that obj-res generates to match the naming scheme described in the usage section.
Multilink does this work itself, as the resulting data resource is the common data for all segments.
Multilink is based on an LCP option negotiation that permits a system to indicate to its peer that it is capable of combining multiple physical links into a "bundle".
The goal of multilink operation is to coordinate multiple independent links between a fixed pair of systems, providing a virtual link with Sklower, Lloyd, McGregor, Carr and Coradetti [Page 4] Draft PPP Multilink December 1995 greater bandwidth than any of the constituent members.
We suggest that multilink operation can be modeled as a virtual PPP link-layer entity wherein packets received over different physical link-layer entities are identified as belonging to a separate PPP network protocol (the Multilink Protocol, or MP) and recombined and sequenced according to information present in a multilink fragmentation header.
