Point-to-Point
Admin Status
Enables or disables the device to establish a
point-to-point link, or specifies for the device
to automatically establish a point-to-point
link.
To establish communications over a point-
to-point link, the originating PPP first sends
Link Control Protocol (LCP) packets to
configure and test the data link. After a link
is established and optional facilities are
negotiated as needed by the LCP, the
originating PPP sends Network Control
Protocols (NCP) packets to select and
configure one or more network layer
protocols. When each of the chosen network
layer protocols has been configured,
packets from each network layer protocol
can be sent over the link. The link remains
configured for communications until explicit
LCP or NCP packets close the link, or until
some external event occurs.
