Abstract
The Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) [1] provides a method for
transmitting multi-protocol datagrams over point-to-point links. PPP
defines an extensible Link Control Protocol, and proposes a family of
Network Control Protocols for establishing and configuring different
network-layer protocols.
The IPX protocol was originally used in Novell's NetWare products
[3], and is now supported by numerous other vendors. This document
defines the Network Control Protocol for establishing and configuring
the IPX protocol over PPP.
This memo is the product of the Point-to-Point Protocol Working Group
of the IETF. Comments should be submitted to the ietf-
mailing list.
