Configuring MP by using a VT interface
You can use either of the following methods to configure MP by using a VT interface:
• Bind physical interfaces to the VT interface by using the ppp mp virtual-template command.
{ If authentication is not configured, the system binds links according to the descriptor of the peer.
{ If authentication is configured, the system binds links according to the username, the descriptor
of the peer, or both.
• Associate a username with the VT interface. After the user passes authentication, the system finds
the VT interface associated with the username and bundles links according to the username and the
descriptor of the peer. To ensure a successful link negotiation, configure the ppp mp command and
two-way authentication (PAP, CHAP, MS-CHAP, or MS-CHAP-V2) on the bundled interfaces.
When you configure MP by using a VT interface, follow these guidelines:
• The ppp mp command and the ppp mp virtual-template command are mutually exclusive on an
interface.
• You must use the same method to configure the interfaces to be bundled .
• To use one-way authentication, associate physical interfaces with a VT interface on one end and
associate a username with the VT interface on the other end.
• Configure a VT interface to provide only one service, such as MP, L2TP, or PPPoE.

Command Remarks
1. Enter system view.
system-view N/A
2. Create a VT interface and enter
its view.
interface virtual-template number
If the VT interface already
exists, you enter its view
directly.
3. (Optional.) Set the interface
description.
description text
By default, the description of
a VT interface is interface
name Interface, for example,
Virtual-Template1 Interface.
4. Set the keepalive interval.
timer-hold seconds
The default setting is 10
seconds.
5. Set the keepalive retry limit.
timer-hold retry retry The default setting is 5.
6. Set the MTU size of the
interface.
mtu size
The default setting is 1500
bytes.
7. Set the expected bandwidth of
the VT interface.
bandwidth bandwidth-value
By default, the expected
bandwidth (in kbps) is the
interface baud rate divided
by 1000.
8. (Optional.) Specify a primary
traffic processing unit for the VA
interfaces of the VT interface.
• Distributed devices in standalone
mode/centralized devices in IRF
mode:
service slot slot-number
• Distributed devices in IRF mode:
service chassis chassis-number slot
slot-number
By default, no primary traffic
processing unit is specified.
