I think what he was saying is that if you configure the load threshold to 0
that the "other" links (i.e. the second BRI line in a Dialer group or other
PPP multilink) would come up automaticall and stay up the entire time. Then
as long as there is interesting traffic to reset the idle timer, the other
links will also stay up. The fast idle command should only have any bearing
when there are other calls waiting to be placed......
