PPP E
NCAPSULATION
The Point-to-Point protocol (PPP) emerged as an encapsulation protocol for
transporting IP traffic over point-to-point links. PPP also established a standard for
the assignment and management of IP addresses, asynchronous and
synchronous encapsulation, network protocol multiplexing, link configuration, link
quality testing, error detection and option negotiation for such capabilities as
network layer address and data-compression. PPP supports these functions by
providing an extensible Link Control Protocol (LCP) and a family of Network
Control Protocols (NCP) to negotiate optional configuration parameters and
facilities. PPP supports protocols like IP, IPX and DECnet through the Network
Control Protocols.
