[-- Attachment #1 --] Hi, I'm trying to write a driver which sends ppp packets through the ethernet NIC. In order avoid implementing all the ppp protocol I want to use the existing ppp driver in FreeBSD. Is there a way to send to the ppp driver data and get it back covered with the appropriate ppp frame? If there is, how can I indicate the different stages in the ppp protocol? I looked in the implementation of the ppp which uses the ppp driver but I think it does some assumptions (like using ppp with the modem device) that confuses me. please send your replies to me.
