remote setminline

This command is used for dial-up connections and other connections that behave like
dial-up connections, such as L2TP and PPPoE sessions. The command sets the
minimum number of channels to be continually allocated to the connection. The
default is 0, in which case a channel is allocated only when needed.
For example, if your service provider charges by the hour, you might prefer the
minlines default value (0) so that a channel is allocated only when needed. However,
if you are not charged by the hour, then having a channel allocated continually would
save you the 2-3 second wait time required for each channel re-allocation.
