System Limits For Mlp Bundles; Types Of Mlp Bundle Interfaces - Cisco 10000-2P2-2DC Software Configuration Manual

Types of MLP Bundle Interfaces

Adding the ppp multilink group command to a link's configuration does not make that link part of the
specified bundle. This command only places a restriction on the link. If the link negotiates to use
multilink, then it must provide the proper identification to join the bundle on the multilink interface or
to activate a bundle on that interface. If the link provides identification that coincides with another active
bundle in the system, or the link fails to match the identity of a bundle that is already active on the
multilink group interface, the connection terminates.
A link joins an MLP bundle only if it negotiates to use multilink when the connection is established and
the identification information exchanged matches that of an existing bundle. If a link supplies
identification information that does not match any known bundle, MLP creates a new bundle for the user.
