       Title     : Point-to-Point Protocol Extensions for DECnet Phase
                   IV
       Author(s) : Steven Senum
       Filename  : draft-ietf-pppext-decnet-00.txt

The purpose of this memo is to define a method for transmitting
DNA Phase IV Routing packets over a serial link using the PPP protocol.
This memo only applies to DNA Phase IV Routing messages (both data and
control), and not to other DNA Phase IV protocols (MOP, LAT, etc).
There are two basic approaches to running the DNA Phase IV Routing
protocol over a serial line:

1. The approached that several router vendors have taken which is to
treat the serial link as an Ethernet, using the same data and control
messages an Ethernet would use.

2. The approach defined by Digital, which uses DDCMP and slightly
different control messages.

This memo will define a method that uses the first approach.
