PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol)

The Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) provides connections between routers and between hosts and networks over synchronous and asynchronous circuits.

PPPSmartAgent monitors the 0x51 debug output from a PortMaster to observe PPP negotiation and detects when a failure occurs. PPPSmartAgent can determine what caused the failure and suggest a possible solution.
