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. Internet-Drafts are available by anonymous FTP.
