Configuring Encapsulation for Multilink and Link Services Logical Interfaces

Multilink and link services interfaces support the following logical interface encapsulation types:

By default, the logical interface encapsulation type on multilink interfaces is MLPPP. The default logical interface encapsulation type on link services interfaces is MLFR end-to-end. For general information on encapsulation, see the JUNOS Network Interfaces Configuration Guide.

You can also configure physical interface encapsulation on link services interfaces. For more information, see Configuring Link Services Physical Interfaces.

To configure multilink or link services encapsulation, include the encapsulation statement:

encapsulation type;

You can include this statement at the following hierarchy levels:

You must also configure the T1, E1, or DS0 physical interface with the same encapsulation type.

Caution: When you configure the first MLFR encapsulated unit or delete the last MLFR encapsulated unit on a port, it triggers an interface encapsulation change on the port, which causes an interface flap on the other units within the port that are configured with generic Frame Relay.
