Project Summary
ppp (Paul's PPP Package) is an open source package which implements the Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) on Linux and Solaris systems.
----------
The pppd daemon works together with the kernel PPP driver to establish and maintain a PPP link with another system (called the peer) and to negotiate Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for each end of the link.
pppd can also authenticate the peer and/or supply authentication information to the peer. PPP can be used with other network protocols besides IP, but such use is becoming increasingly rare.
