Hi group,

To do this task, I apply interface Virtual Template 1 to two physical Frame
Relay interfaces and I test by ping. I see the traffic goes throug 2
Virtual-Access interfaces.
Then, I apply interface Multilink to Virtual-Template interface, and test by
ping again. The "debug ip packet" show me that the traffic goes through
Multilink interface.

And my question is : do I really need to apply the interface Multilink to the
Virtual-Template interface ? Without Multilink interface, the traffic still
loads balance over 2 Virtual-Access interfaces (it means the packets are
transmited on both physical link, right?). What is the advantages of Multilink
interface in this task ?

Thanks
