Re: [PWE3] HDLCPW L2TPv3 (RFC 4349): Transport of LAPD frames

[moving to <[email protected]> since the reference of RFC4349]

Javier,

As Stewart answered, LAPD would look like any other HDLC packet to an
HDLC PW. All the data (address (SAPI/TEI), control, etc) is opaque to
the HDLC PW; flags and trailing FCS are stripped, and there rest is
transported.

Thanks,

-- Carlos.
