They basically do the same thing, the interface virtual-template is the
older command. Cisco recommend using interface multilink, the reasons
being:
* Multilink interfaces allow the network administrator to define
multiple multilink interfaces and bind then to different physical
interfaces whereas the virtual template will bind itself to any
interface that is using ppp encapsulation.
* There can be compatibility issues with LLQ when the service
policy is applied to the virtual access interface that is automatically
created through the virtual template interface

Hi all,
I just discovered the "interface multilink x" command. What's the
difference, if any, between that command and the command, "interface
virtual-template x"?
They seem to do and serve the same purpose, is that true? Are they
interchangable? If not, when would I need to use each command?
Thanks in advanced, dt
