HDLC Configuration Commands 289link-protocol slip Syntaxlink-protocol slipViewInterface viewParameterNoneDescriptionUsing the link-protocol slip command, you can set the link layer protocol of theinterface 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 usedto 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 packeton the serial line. Compared with PPP, SLIP has no address concept, negotiationprocess, differentiation of packet types (so only one network protocol can besupported at the same time) and error correction function.The link layer protocol of the interface shall be consistent with that of the peerinterface.ExampleConfigure the link layer protocol on the interface Serial0/0/0 as SLIP.[3Com-Serial0/0/0] link-protocol slipHDLC ConfigurationCommandslink-protocol hdlc Syntaxlink-protocol hdlcViewInterface viewParameterNone
