Interleaving disabled in Multiclass Multilink PPP

John Galietta

I am setting up a two T1 multilink on leased lines.  SInce the site has VoIP I want to set up the Multiclass.  I have applied the following configurations:

!
interface Multilink1
ip address 172.23.0.17 255.255.255.252
ppp multilink
ppp multilink interleave
ppp multilink group 1
ppp multilink fragment delay 20
ppp multilink multiclass
!
interface Serial2/0
no ip address
encapsulation ppp
fair-queue
serial restart-delay 0
ppp multilink
ppp multilink group 1
ppp multilink multiclass
!
interface Serial2/2
no ip address
encapsulation ppp
fair-queue
serial restart-delay 0
ppp multilink
ppp multilink group 1
ppp multilink multiclass
!

The documentation I have been able to find says to set up 'ppp multilink interleave'.  However when I do the 'show ppp multilink' it shows that interleaving is disabled.  I am trying to understand this behavior.  Is this indicating that standard interleaving is disabled because the Multiclass has control of the interleave or is there an error in my configuration?

I have also found contradicting documentation on the 'fair-queue' configuration.  One document says to disable it and another says to enable it.  Does anyone have experience with this?

FYI...I am labbing this on GNS3 initially, so if anyone knows of an odd behavior between Dynamips and Mulitclass Multilink PPP I'd appreciate the heads up.

Hi John,

     You should enable any one type of queueing in multilink interface.  Just try enabling fair queue it will work
