172CHAPTER 12: CONFIGURING PPP AND MP

■ Configure MP Protocol Parameters

1Create Virtual Template

Table 203 Create/Delete virtual template

Operation	Command
Create and enter MP virtual template	interface virtual-template
interface	number
Delete the specified MP virtual template	undo interface virtual-template
interface	number

2Configure Operating Parameters of Virtual Template

Comparing virtual template interface with general physical interface, users can find that the link layer protocol supports only PPP and the network protocol supports IP and IPX. Therefore the following operating parameters can be set:

■Set operating parameters of PPP

■Set IP address of virtual interface

■Set IP address (or IP address pool) allocated to PPP peer

■Set packet filtering rule on virtual interface

There is no difference in configuring the parameters for virtual template and for general interface. See specific configuration in related sections such as PPP configuration of Operation Manual - Link Layer Protocol, IP address configuration of Operation Manual - Network Protocol and RADIUS configuration of Operation Manual - Security.

3Configure the Physical Interface to work in MP Mode Perform the following configuration in interface view.

Table 204 Configure the physical interface to work in MP mode

Operation	Command
Configure the link layer protocol of the interface to PPP	link-protocol ppp
Configure the interface to work in MP mode	ppp mp
Configure the interface to work in common mode	undo ppp mp

By default, interface does not work in MP mode.

4Bind the Physical Interface to a Virtual Template

The physical interface can be bound to a virtual template in two ways. ■ Bind directly

Perform the following configuration in interface view.

Table 205 Bind the physical Interface to a Virtual Template

Operation	Command
Bind the physical Interface to a Virtual	ppp mp interface
Template	virtual-template
	interface-number
Remove the physical interface’s binding to a	undo ppp mp interface
virtual template interface

After this command is configured, the system will not check the username and endpoint when performing MP binding, namely, the commands ppp mp binding-modeand ppp mp user will not take effect.
