I have a problem bringing up ppp multilink. The IOS versions are:

flash:c1600-sy-l.120-26.bin at the remote end

flash:c3640-ds-mz.121-15.bin at the main site.

This is the config for the head site

interface Dialer8

description ** Link to Sydney Town Hall sydneyth_r **

bandwidth 128

ip address 172.21.194.62 255.255.255.252

Under interface BRI0 you need to add the command "ppp multilink" just like you did with the Dialer interface. Good luck.

I did put the ppp multilink under the interface and reset the router but still no go. We even go to the extend of upgrading a brand new router.

With multilink I think either end can decide its time to add a link. It looks like the host end is trying to add the link but has no dialer string.

I dont see any threshold settings. Try setting them so the remote will add the link, not the host.

You may want to add something like this to the dialer interface to define when you want the second bearer to come up. The 1 indicates loading from 0-255 and you can then specify in, out or either for the traffic direction.

dialer load-threshold 1 either

also

ppp timeout multilink link add 1

may be useful.

See http://www.cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk713/tk507/technologies_tech_note09186a0080112d3b.shtml for more details

I see your mixing dialer maps with dialer profiles. Maybe this is the problem. Try creating a dialer map at the head site (you can miss off the number if you never want that end to initiate the call).

Have a look at http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/129/config-bri-map.html

I agree with the very last post for your problem. That is to say at the head office you're using dialer profile and at the branch you're using dialer map. Try having the config consistent. Try the follwing config on your router and see what happen. This config is actually on my exisint routers and they work (of course I've taken out a few irrelevant configs)

At the branch site (which is doing the dialing)

interface BRI0/0

no ip address

encapsulation ppp

dialer pool-member 1

isdn switch-type basic-net3

ppp authentication chap

ppp multilink

!

interface Dialer1

ip address 192.168.180.33 255.255.255.248

encapsulation ppp

dialer pool 1

dialer remote-name head-office

dialer idle-timeout 300

dialer string 12345678

dialer load-threshold 1 either

dialer-group 1

At the head office end (which is the recieving end)

Try keeping your config as basic as possible. When you have it working on 128Kbps then you can try adding other config in. Good luck and let me know how you go.

Thanks for the help guys. Making both ends consistent resolved the problem.
