Re: PPP

2002-03-04 10:50:03

Layering dogma get all confused and convoluted when faced with
engineering ingenuity. At what layer is ATM in the old Cells
in Frames spec? Or PPP when running ppp sessions over TCP?
Or <blah> over MPLS frames over PPP (over TCP)? Or....?

PPP is a layer below the one it serves, and a layer above the
one it uses. Just like most other protocols.
