\page ppp The PPP Kits
The PPP stack is a kernel module that interfaces with the network stack.
Thanks to its modular nature new protocols and extensions can be added without
having to recompile the PPP stack.
- \ref kernelppp
- \ref userlandppp
The kernel API is mostly intended for developers who want to write extension modules,
but you can also create and control PPP interfaces from within your own kernel modules.
You should use the userland API for your applications because it exports helper
classes for accessing the kernel module from userland. Alternatively, you can talk
to the PPP interface manager directly through an \c ioctl() interface.
