More generally, with most PPP options, successful negotiation of the option allows but does not compel the sender to use the feature. If you negotiate away the HDLC Address and Control fields, or use PPP Protocol Field compression, or enable data compression via CCP, you may still send uncompressed data if you have a need to do so. The exceptions are fairly rare and straightforward, such as the use of ECP, where unencrypted packets are very likely to be dropped by the receiver for security reasons. -- James Carlson, KISS Network <[email protected]> Sun Microsystems / 1 Network Drive 71.232W Vox +1 781 442 2084 MS UBUR02-212 / Burlington MA 01803-2757 42.496N Fax +1 781 442 1677 _______________________________________________ Pppext mailing list [email protected] https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/pppext
