RE: MPPP for DS-3's [7:40213]

2002-04-03 Thread Woods, Randall, SOLCM

Thanks for the info. I was aware of the issues involved with running it
I just wanted to know if there was a limitation to the speed of an
interface that is allowed to perform it. I haven't seen anything that
says no but just curious. I agree CEF is a better solution if the
platform supports it. We actually run both for the customer that I
support. We haven't had any issues with either so far.

Thanks,
Woody

As I haven ranted in the past, for parallel path load sharing just say
no to PPP.  CEF works great, is efficient and easy to configure.  PPP
has more overhead, interleaving, fragmentation (which yes can be
disabled and should if you choose PPP) all for what??  You can save IP
addresses but this is most often a moot point, use RFC1918 addresses.

 router instead of using CEF or just letting the routing protocol load
 balance. Any thoughts?

No speed issues.  I have actually heard of MPPP being run successfully on
even higher speed links, like OC-12.  But I don't recommend it.  Listen to
the madman - use CEF.

MPPP for DS-3's [7:40213]

Has anyone ever tried to created a mullilink PPP bundle with DS-3's? A
coworker was wondering and I never thought about it myself. I've only
configured it for t-1's. I would assume the overhead might be bad for the
router instead of using CEF or just letting the routing protocol load
