RE: Multilink interfaces with the same IP address

They're virtual addresses so they certainly CAN do that. It's a little
strange from a design standpoint though. What I would venture to say in
this regard is that while your router (R2?) is needing to have the SAME
SINGLE IP address all along, perhaps later on you'll want to have separate
QoS or traffic-shaping for one multilink versus another.

Personally, I would have put that IP address onto a loopback and just use
"ip unnumbered loopback1" or something like that.

OK.... I accidently pasted the wrong example before -sorry. Here's the
proper example:

interface Multilink1
 ip address 143.43.65.2 255.255.255.0
 ppp multilink
 ppp multilink group 1
!
interface Multilink2
 ip address 143.43.65.2 255.255.255.0
 ppp multilink
 ppp multilink group 2
!
interface Serial0/1/0
 no ip address
 encapsulation frame-relay
 frame-relay traffic-shaping
 frame-relay interface-dlci 205 ppp Virtual-Template1
 frame-relay interface-dlci 206 ppp Virtual-Template2
 frame-relay interface-dlci 215 ppp Virtual-Template1
 frame-relay interface-dlci 216 ppp Virtual-Template2
 frame-relay interface-dlci 225 ppp Virtual-Template1
 frame-relay interface-dlci 226 ppp Virtual-Template2!
