PPP

Point To Point Protocol. The protocol for dialling up an Internet provider. It lets you simultaneously browse remote machines while file transfers go on in the background. It is gradually replacing the older, slower and more complicated to configure SLIP protocol. PPP also lets you send Novell Netware traffic over the line to simulate a LAN. Like DHCP, PPP automatically assign the workstation dialling in an IP, and some DNS servers.
