Multilink PPP-Based Link Fragmentation and Interleaving
Adding an ATM Member Link to a MLP Bundle
You can configure up to 10 member links per MLP bundle for Multi-VC MLP over ATM-based LFI.
However, you can configure only one member link per MLP bundle for Single-VC MLP over ATM-based
LFI.
To add ATM member links to a MLP bundle, enter the following commands beginning in global
configuration mode:
Step 3
Router(config-if)# ppp chap hostname hostname
(Optional) Identifies the hostname sent in the Challenge
Handshake Authentication Protocol (CHAP) challenge.
hostname is the name of the bundle group. This is the unique
identifier that identifies the bundle.
Note If you configure this command on the bundle and its
member links, specify the same identifier for both the
bundle and the member links.
Step 4
Router(config-if)# encapsulation ppp
Specifies Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) encapsulation for the
interface.
Step 5
Router(config-if)# no ip address
Removes any existing IP address from the main interface.
Step 6
Router(config-if)# ppp multilink
Enables MLP on the interface.
Step 7
Router(config-if)# ppp multilink group
group-number
Associates the interface with a MLP bundle.
group-number is a nonzero number that identifies the
multilink group. Valid values are from 1 to 9999 (Cisco IOS
Release 12.2(28)SB and later releases) or from 1 to 9999 and
65,536 to 2,147,483,647 (Cisco IOS Release 12.2(31)SB2
and later releases).
The group-number must be identical to the specified
multilink-bundle-number of the MLP bundle to which you
want to add this link.
Command Purpose
Command Purpose
Step 1
Router(config-if)# interface atm
slot/module/port
Configures or modifies the ATM interface you specify and
enters interface configuration mode.
Step 2
Router(config-if)# hold-queue length {in |
out}
Limits the size of the IP output queue on an interface. We
recommend that you configure this command on all physical
interfaces, except when using the OC-12 ATM line card.
length is a number that specifies the maximum number of
packets in the queue. Valid values are from 0 to 4096. We
recommend 4096 packets for all line cards, except the ATM
OC-12 line card. By default, the input queue is 75 packets
and the output queue is 40 packets.
in specifies the input queue.
out specifies the output queue.
Step 3
Router(config-if)# interface atm
slot/module/port.subinterface point-to-point
Creates or modifies a point-to-point subinterface. Enters
subinterface configuration mode.
