| 61 | The syncppp drivers in Linux provide a fairly complete | ||
| 62 | implementation of Cisco HDLC and a minimal implementation of | ||
| 63 | PPP. The longer term goal is to switch the PPP layer to the | ||
| 64 | generic PPP interface that is new in Linux 2.3.x. The API should | ||
| 65 | remain unchanged when this is done, but support will then be | ||
| 66 | available for IPX, compression and other PPP features | ||
