Supported Link Services Standards

On routers equipped with one or more Adaptive Services PICs (both standalone and integrated versions) or Multiservices PICs or DPCs, the Junos OS substantially supports the following RFCs, which define standards for link services.

• RFC 1990, The PPP Multilink Protocol (MP)
• RFC 2364, PPP Over AAL5
• RFC 2686, The Multi-Class Extension to Multi-Link PPP

  The following features are not supported:

  • Negotiation of address field compression and protocol field compression PPP NCP options; instead, a full 4-byte PPP header is always sent
  • Prefix elision
