Overview
High-level Data Link Control (HDLC) is a bit-oriented link layer protocol. HDLC can transmit any type of
bit stream transparently.
HDLC supports only point-to-point link and does not support point-to-multipoint link.
•
HDLC supports neither IP address negotiation nor authentication. It uses keepalives to check link
•
status.
HDLC works only on synchronous interfaces or synchronous/asynchronous interfaces in
•
synchronous mode. HDLC is supported by serial interfaces that operate in synchronous mode and
POS interfaces.
