Access Server Administrators’ Reference Guide Introduction Point-to-point protocol (PPP) is a widely used data link layer protocol for connecting remote devices in point- to-point configuration. Mainly used in dial-up applications and in network core applications, PPP is used for multiplexed transport over a point-to-point link, it operates on all full-duplex media, and is a symmetric peer- to-peer protocol, which consists of the following major components: •...
