Abstract

Techniques are disclosed for intelligent management of multiple communications links. One communications link can be used to bring up another communications link with little or no user input. Selective enablement/disablement of one or more of the communications links is based on system needs and other criteria. Utilizing one more-secure communications link to improve security on another less-secure communications link between the same devices is also contemplated.
