The simplest possible algorithms of alternating packets between channels on a space available basis (which might be called the Bank Teller's algorithm) may have undesirable side effects due to reordering of packets.
The amount depends on the relative delay between the channels, (D[channel-i,channel-j]), the data rate of each channel, R[c], the maximum fragment size permitted on each channel, F[c], and the total amount of buffering the transmitter has allocated amongst the channels.
The length and content depend on the value of the Class as follows: Class 0 - Null Class Maximum Length: 0 Content: This class is the default value if the option is not present in a received Configure-Request.

Information Theory, developed by Claude E. Shannon in 1948, provides a mathematical model by which one can compute the maximal amount of information that can be carried by a channel.
