SROS Command Line Interface Reference Guide PPP Interface Configuration Command Set

alias link<“text”>

Each configured PPP interface (when referenced using SNMP) contains a link (physical port) and a bundle (group of links). RFC 1471 (for Link Connection Protocol) provides an interface table to manage lists of bundles and associated links. The alias link command provides the management station an identifying description for each link (PPP physical).

Syntax Description

<“text”>	Alphanumeric character string describing the interface (for SNMP) — must be
	encased in quotation marks

Default Values

<“text”> “” (EMPTY)

Command Modes

(config-ppp 1)# PPP Interface Configuration Mode required

Functional Notes

The alias link string should be used to uniquely identify a PPP link. Enter a string that clearly identifies the link.

Usage Examples

The following example defines a unique character string for the virtual PPP interface (1):

(config)#interface ppp 1 (config-ppp 1)#alias link “PPP_link_1”

Technology Review

Please refer to RFC 1990 for a more detailed discussion on PPP links and bundles.
