3. Specify the primary and
secondary DNS server IP
addresses to be allocated to
the peer in PPP negotiation..
ppp ipcp dns primary-dns-address
[ secondary-dns-address ]
By default, a device does not
allocate DNS server IP addresses
to its peer if the peer does not
request them.
Configuring MP
You can configure MP by using virtual template (VT) or MP-group interfaces.
• VT interfaces are used to configure VA interfaces. After bundling multiple PPP links into an MP link,
create a VA interface for the MP link to exchange data with the peers.
• MP-group interfaces are intended only for MP. On an MP-group interface, only one bundle is
allowed, and links cannot be bundled according to the peer descriptor. Compared with VT
interfaces, the configuration of MP-group interfaces is more efficient and easier to configure and
understand.
