Command Reference Guide
alias link "<text>"
Use the alias link command to provide the management station with an identifying description for each
link (Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) physical). Each configured PPP interface (when referenced using
Simple 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. Use the no form of this command to return to the default setting.
Syntax Description
"<text>"
Default Values
By default, the PPP identification string appears as empty quotation marks (" ").
Command History
Release 1.1
Functional Notes
The alias link string should be used to uniquely identify a PPP link. Enter a string that clearly identifies the
link.
Usage Examples
The following example defines a unique character string for the virtual PPP interface (1):
(config)#interface ppp 1
(config-ppp 1)#alias link "PPP_link_1"
Technology Review
Please refer to RFC 1990 for a more detailed discussion on PPP links and bundles.
