What is PPP?
The Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) is a WAN protocol. It is a single or
multi-link interface between two packet switching devices, such as a
bridge or router. A PPP link may be created between the OfficeConnect
Remote 840 and a remote router after they connect. PPP is an efficient
conduit for multiple protocols such as IP and IPX, which are encapsulated
across the communications datalink.
