Types of MLP Bundle Interfaces Chapter 22 Configuring Multilink Point-to-Point Protocol Connections 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. System Limits for MLP Bundles Table 22-1 lists the system limits for MLP bundles.

For releases earlier than Cisco IOS Release 12.2(28)SB, the valid multilink interface range is 1 to 2,147,483,647.
