Configure PPP negotiation
When PPP starts up, the devices at both ends of the link negotiate the link parameters to find a
common subset that both devices can use. The negotiation may be summarized by saying that both
ends send negotiation packets with the following message:
These are the values that I wish to use, and these are the values that I wish you to use.
