the bundle), but SROS will automatically define one based on the specified Frame Relay interface. For
example, if multilink operation is enabled on a Frame Relay interface labeled fr 1, the bundle ID
becomes mfr1 (with the 1 corresponding to the label of the Frame Relay interface). Bundle IDs can be
character strings containing 1 to 48 characters. Manually defining the bundle ID can make it easier to
differentiate between bundles in systems with more than one multilink bundle. In systems with a single
multilink bundle, leaving the bundle ID to the default value is the easiest solution.
The following commands specify the configuration parameters required for a standard multilink Frame
Relay interface:
ProCurve>enable
ProCurve#config terminal
ProCurve(config)#interface fr 1
ProCurve(config-fr 1)#frame-relay multilink
ProCurve(config-fr 1)#no shutdown
ProCurve(config-fr 1)#exit
Now, bind multiple physical interfaces to the same multilink Frame Relay interface:
ProCurve(config)#bind 1 t1 3/1 1 fr 1
ProCurve(config)#bind 2 t1 3/2 2 fr 1
ProCurve(config)#bind 3 t1 3/3 3 fr 1
To create a standard multilink Frame Relay interface using the Web GUI, follow the same procedure
for a standard Frame Relay interface (see Configuring the Frame Relay Interfaces (and
Sub-Interfaces) on page 7) and click the Multilink checkbox. Interfaces configured for multilink
operation can be bound to more than one physical interface. To bind a physical interface to an existing
multilink interface, specify multilink operation and select the interface from the drop down list.
