Configuring MLPPP Backhaul

 

Command

Purpose

Step 3

 

 

Router(config-if)# interface

Creates the multilink group interface corresponding to the specified group

 

multilink group-number

number. This command enables the following commands under the

 

 

interface multilink group number:

 

Example:

1. ppp multilink

 

Router(config-if)# interface

2. ppp multilink group group-number

 

multilink 5

 

 

where group-numberis the Multilink group number.

 

 

The example restricts (identifies) the multilink interface that can be

 

 

negotiated to multilink interface 5.

Step 4

 

 

Router(config-if)# keepalive

Enables keepalive packets on the interface and specifies the number of

 

[period [retries]]

times the keepalive packets are sent without a response before the router

 

 

disables the interface. The syntax is as follows:

 

Example:

period—(Optional) Integer value in seconds greater than 0. The

 

Router(config-if)# keepalive 1 5

default is 10. Using 0 disables the keepalive option.

 

 

retries—(Optional) Specifies the number of times that the device will

 

 

continue to send keepalive packets without response before bringing

 

 

the interface down. Integer value greater than 1 and less than 255. If

 

 

omitted, the value that was previously set is used; if no value was

 

 

specified previously, the default of 5 is used.

Step 5

 

 

Router(config-if)# exit

Exits configuration mode.

 

Example:

 

 

Router(config)# exit
