Any destination" ATM channels (i.e. connections without specified
virtual channels) can be used as Specific destination" channels.
This can be done by adding the name of the virtual channel to be
used in the VPN Server" field, each time you establish the
connection.
Two factors are of importance when using this procedure:
G The Dial Up Networking application will in fact look up a
match between the string, specified next to the VPN server's
DNS hostname or IP address ( in the previous example
'Alcatel_pptp').
If however, several PPTP connections entries exist, with names
starting with 'Alcatel_pptp' (e.g. Alcatel_pptp1, Alcatel_pptp2,
etc.) it can not be determined which of these will be used to
establish the connection.
This can be advantegeous too: if a selection of virtual
channels may be used by a particular PPP/PPTP connection,
then just give them names with a stringmatch in the beginning
of the name (as in the above example).
G In the event no match is found in the Phonebook, or if the
specified virtual channel is already used, the Dial Up
application will use the first available idle PPTP connection
found in the PPTP connections table. Consequently, the virtual
channel to be used is undetermined.
