Description
Using the link-protocol slip command, you can set the link layer protocol of the
interface as SLIP.
By default, the link-layer protocol for interface is PPP.
P2P link can use simpler link layer protocol SLIP(Serial Line IP), which is mainly used
to run TCP/IP on the P2P serial port. SLIP is only used for the asynchronous link.
SLIP only defines the start and end identifiers of frame, so as to intercept IP packet
on the serial line. Compared with PPP, SLIP has no address concept, negotiation
process, differentiation of packet types (so only one network protocol can be
supported at the same time) and error correction function.
The link layer protocol of the interface shall be consistent with that of the peer
interface.
Example
Configure the link layer protocol on the interface Serial0/0/0 as SLIP.
