IP Address Connect (spoofing) on a Leased line

Issue:
How to configure IP Address Connect on a Leased line.

Solution:

The following configuration will allow the link to connect only when there is IP data activity over the Leased line.  After a specified amount of inactivity, the link will drop.  Any IP data destined for a remote network from router 1 will raise the link again. 

PSeries router 1 configuration  (only router 1 is configured for IP Address Connect.  IP data from Client PCs on this LAN will cause this router to raise the link.  Note: Make sure to configure a default gateway for Client PCs on this LAN. The default gateway is the LAN IP address of router 1)
