MPIP Setup... MPIP setup is only necessary for a site that has more than 1 Hiper Arc and has PRI's. It is not necessary for those POP's that don't support ISDN. When setting up MPIP on the Hiper Arcs you will have to designate one of the Harcs as the server for the group. It will keep track of where all the channels are and who they belong to. The rest of the Harcs, including the one designated as the server will be setup as clients. (It's a client too.) add mpip server <ip_address of server> sharedsecret <secret> priority 1 Remember to do this on all the Harcs. On the Harc that is going to be the server, as0, make sure the server state is on set mpip server_state on Now, on each Hiper Arc, including the server you need to add the ip address of all the Hiper Arc's in the group. add mpip client <ip_address> sharedsecret <secret> type hiper By default all Hiper Arc's are set to default server_state=off and client_state=on Only the Harc acting as the server will have both server and client state on, else it should be off, on. set NTP primary_server<ip address of NTP server> enable ntp save all NOTE: Daylight Savings Time does not work on the HiPer ARC until version 5.1.99. Verify Setup show mpip settings list mpip servers list mpip clients -- David.Hamilton@Voyager.net CoreComm Network Operations Joel - Fox Computers extolled:

Yes, you would use MPIP (I think it's 'Multilink-PPP Interspan Protocol) Do a search on http://totalservice.commworks.com for MPIP and there are a bunch of examples on how to configure it.

That's not strictly true. You can successfully run MP over modem connections over CT1's. Its rare, but it can be done. ;) </nit>
set NTP primary_server<ip address of NTP server> enable ntp
Let me just emphasize this step. NTP is *critical* as MPIP is depedant on the time matching on the various Arcs for correct operation. -- Jeff McAdams Email: jeffm@iglou.com Head Network Administrator Voice: (502) 966-3848 IgLou Internet Services (800) 436-4456
