•
When the host connects to the device directly or through a bridge device, the device can use
method 1 or method 2.
•
When the host accesses the device through a router, the device can use method 3 to assign an
IPv6 prefix to the router. The router assigns the prefix to the host to generate an IPv6 global
unicast address.
IPv6 DNS server address assignment
On IPv6 networks, two methods are available for the IPv6 DNS address assignment:
•
AAA authorizes the IPv6 DNS address and assigns this address to the host through RA
messages.
•
The DHCPv6 client requests an IPv6 DNS address from the DHCPv6 server.

MP overview

Multilink PPP (MP) allows you to bind multiple PPP links into one MP bundle for increasing
bandwidth. If a packet is larger than the minimum packet size for fragmentation, MP fragments the
packet and distributes the fragments across multiple PPP links to the peer. The peer reassembles
them into one packet and passes the packet to the network layer.
In addition to increasing bandwidth, MP also provides link-layer load sharing, which can implement
backup. MP fragmentation can reduce transmission delay, especially on low-speed links.
MP is available to all physical or virtual interfaces with PPP encapsulation enabled, including serial,
ISDN BRI/PRI, and PPPoX (PPPoE or PPPoA) interfaces. In MP configuration, as a best practice,
include only one type of interfaces in an MP bundle.
