Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP)

Posted on | | Leave a Comment on Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP)

  The Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) The Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) provides a standard method for transporting multi-protocol datagram over point-to-point links.  PPP is comprised of three main components: 1.    A method for encapsulating multi-protocol datagrams. 2.    A Link Control Protocol (LCP) for establishing, configuring, and testing the data-link connection. 3.    A family of Network Control Protocols […]

PPP over ISDN

Posted on | | Leave a Comment on PPP over ISDN

PPP over ISDN The Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) [1] provides a standard method for transporting multi-protocol datagrams over point-to-point links. This document describes the use of PPP over Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) switched circuits. Applicability This specification is intended for those implementations which desire to use the PPP encapsulation over ISDN point-to-point links.  PPP is […]

Posted on | | Leave a Comment on Multiprotocol Interconnect on X.25 and ISDN in the Packet Mode

Multiprotocol Interconnect on X.25 and ISDN in the Packet Mode  This document specifies the encapsulation of IP and other network layer protocols over X.25 networks, in accordance and alignment with ISO/IEC and CCITT standards.  It is a replacement for RFC 877, “A Standard for the Transmission of IP Datagrams Over Public Data Networks” [1]. It was written to correct several […]

Protocol Layers in Dual MAC Stations

Thoughts on Address Resolution for Dual MAC FDDI Networks

Posted on | | Leave a Comment on Thoughts on Address Resolution for Dual MAC FDDI Networks

Thoughts on Address Resolution for Dual MAC FDDI Networks  1. Abstract In this document, an idea is submitted how IP and ARP can be used on in homogeneous FDDI networks (FDDI networks with dual MAC and single MAC stations) by introducing a new protocol layer in the protocol suite of the dual MAC stations. Thus two dual […]

Transmission of IP Datagrams over FDDI Networks

Posted on | | Leave a Comment on Transmission of IP Datagrams over FDDI Networks

A Proposed Standard for the Transmission of IP Datagrams over FDDI Networks (RFC 1188) Introduction The Fiber Distributed Data Interface (FDDI) specifications define a family of standards for Local Area Networks (LANs) that provides the Physical Layer and Media Access Control Sublayer of the Data Link Layer as defined by the ISO Open System Interconnection […]
