Command Reference Guide
alias link "<text>"
Each configured high level data link control (HDLC) interface (when referenced using Signaling Network
Management Protocol (SNMP)) contains a link (physical port) and a bundle (group of links). RFC 1471
(for Link Connection Protocol) provides an interface table to manage lists of bundles and associated links.
The alias link command provides the management station an identifying description for each link (HDLC
physical).
Syntax Description
"<text>"
Default Values
By default, the HDLC identification string appears as empty quotation marks (" ").
Command History
Release 10.1
Functional Notes
The alias link string should be used to uniquely identify an HDLC link. Enter a string that clearly identifies
the link.
Usage Examples
The following example defines a unique character string for the virtual HDLC interface (1):
(config)#interface hdlc 1
(config-hdlc 1)#alias link "HDLC_link_1"
Technology Review
Please refer to RFC 1990 for a more detailed discussion on HDLC links and bundles.
