Hi,

I'm trying to write a driver = which sends=20 ppp packets through the ethernet NIC.

In order avoid implementing = all the ppp=20 protocol I want to use the existing ppp driver in FreeBSD.

Is there a way to send = to the ppp=20 driver data and get it back covered with the appropriate ppp = frame?

If there is, how can I = indicate the=20 different stages in the ppp protocol?

I looked in the = implementation of the=20 ppp which uses the ppp driver but I think it does some assumptions (like = using=20 ppp with the modem device) that confuses me.

please send your replies to=20 me.

Thank you,
