Usage Notes
Note that these limits are on a “per-link” basis. For example, issuing ppp multilink slippage mru 4
means that the total amount of data which is buffered by the bundle is 4 times the MRU times the number
of links in the bundle.
means that the total amount of data which is buffered by the bundle is 4 times the MRU times the number
of links in the bundle.
The reassembly engine is also affected by the lost fragment timeout, which is configured using the
ppp timeout multilink lost-fragment command.
ppp timeout multilink lost-fragment command.
The buffer limit derived from the slippage constraints implies a corresponding tolerated differential
delay between the links. Since it does not make sense to be declaring a fragment lost due to a timeout
when it is within the delay window defined by the slippage, the timeout will be dynamically increased
as necessary so that it is never smaller than the delay value derived from the slippage parameters.

Configuring RTP/UDP Compression
The maximum number of RTP header compression connections is documented as 150 per T1 interface
and up to 600 connections per MLP bundle when in fact, 1000 connections are supported per MLP
bundle regardless of whether the bundle contains one T1 interface or four.

The show ppp mux Command
The efficiency improvement factor calculation documented in the show ppp mux command section is
incorrect. The correct improvement factor calculation uses bytes, not packets, and is as follows:
incorrect. The correct improvement factor calculation uses bytes, not packets, and is as follows:
Multiplex efficiency improvement factor = 100 * (Total bytes saved) / (Total bytes received)
Where total bytes saved = bytes_received_at_muxer - bytes_sent_at_muxer.
Demultiplex efficiency improvement factor = 100 * (Total bytes saved) / (Total bytes sent)
Where total bytes saved = bytes_sent_at_demuxer - bytes_received_at_demuxer.
Command
Purpose
Step 6
Router(config-if)# ppp multilink slippage mru value
Specifies that the buffer limit is x bytes where the
byte count is expressed as a multiple of the
maximum receive unit (MRU) negotiated for the
bundle (the buffer limit is derived as the number of
times defined for the value times the size of the
largest packet received). Valid values are 2 through
32. The default is 8.

The MRU is dynamically negotiated with
the peer when the connection is
established, therefore, the byte count also

Specifies the buffer limit, in milliseconds worth of

The actual amount of data buffered
depends upon the bandwidth of the links.
