PPP is a protocol that can be used to establish communication between any two communicating devices that need to exchange information. Д¤.1 Introduction to PPP Much help was acquired from Internet Request-For-Comments (RFC) documents on the details of the point-to-point protocol. Point-to-Point Protocol, and HDLC Protocol.Chapter 4 The Point to Point Protocol (PPP) This chapter gives an overview of the PPP, explains the various stages, some packet formats, implementation details and options, and discusses the PPP implementation on the WMIв„ў. Standard, High-level Data Link Control Specification Related: Protocol Acronyms, Protocol Definitions Other Protocols LAP Link Access Procedure and LAPB LinkДЄccess Procedure, Balanced, PPP Point-to-Point Protocol and ForДЄsynchronous links, inter-octet and inter-frame time fill MUST beДЄccomplished by transmitting continuous '1' bits. Of control signals, such as Request To Send (RTS), Clear To Send (CTS),Дata Carrier Detect (DCD), and Data Terminal Ready (DTR). Transparent to PPP Data Link Layer frames. PPP is used withДЇull-duplex circuits operating in eitherДЄn asynchronous (start/stop), bit-synchronous, or octet-synchronous mode, PPP is capable of operating on manyДTE/DCE interfaces (such as, RS-232C, RS-422, RS-423 or V.35). Point-to-Point Protocol is used in transporting multi-protocolДatagrams over point-to-point links. Point-to-Point Protocol Frame Encapsulation: Point-to-Point Protocol HDLC Frame Encapsulation With fixed packet size may not require an End Frame Delimiter.ДЇor some physical interfaces after the data as beenД®ncapsulated into the frame it must still be scrambled before being sent Pattern identifies the end of the packet to the Destination. The End Frame Delimiter has a specific bit pattern. The CRC or FCS Д¬ontains an error checking number that the Destination can use to verify It canД¬ontain Control Information for handshaking, or actual Data used by The Data Field is the actual information being transmitted.

It identifies the purpose of the packet as Data or Control The Control Field indicates the type of Information that is being Used to identify who should be receiving the data. Identify to the network that's sending data. The Source and Destination Addresses identify the The Address Field consists of a Source Address and/or aДestination Address. Station that a new packet is arriving and synchronizes the receive clock These include the PPP HDLC frame, and the Ethernet HDLC frame. HDLC FCS FieldДЄ few different versions of the HDLC frame are shown below. Layer 3 frames are carried in the data field.

The Data field may vary in length depending upon the protocol using theДЇrame. The Control field is 8 or 16 bits and defines the frame type Control orДata. Remaining bits indicate the group address. Unicast message the remaining bits indicate the destination nodeДЄ one in the MSB bit location indicates multicast message, the The first bit in the Address field indicates if the frame is aДЄ zero in the MSB bit location indicates a The SS7 protocol, which is used in point-to-point links, does A zero in this bit location indicates the continuation of the field The LSB bit indicates that the length of theДЄddress field will be 8 bits long. bit may be used allowing for multi-byte addresses. In many cases theДЄddress field is typically just a single byte, but an Extended Address Used, but is normally 0, 8 or 16 bits in length. The length of the address field depends on the data link layer protocol The Opening flag may be preceded by additional flags or idleДЇlags, both used as inter-frame fill.

A continuous series of flags may be sent to fill theДЄrea between frames instead of sending idle flags. Transmitted idle flags may be sent to fill the area betweenДЇrames. During idle times when no frames are being An abort sequence will cause theДЇrame to be discarded. Known as all stations, 00000000 is this station.ДЇrames may be aborted by sending an abort sequence instead of In the data stream it again is converted into 7D-5D. User data which contains 7E is resolved using an escape sequence whichД¬onverts 7E to 7D-5E.
