RFC 1963:
Title: PPP Serial Data Transport Protocol (SDTP)

The Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) provides a standard method for
transporting multi-protocol datagrams over point-to-point links. PPP
defines an extensible Link Control Protocol, and proposes a family of
Network Control Protocols for establishing and configuring different
network-layer protocols. This document describes a new Network level
protocol (from the PPP point of view), PPP Serial Data Transport
Protocol, that provides encapsulation and an associated control
protocol for transporting serial data streams over a PPP link. This
protocol was developed for the purpose of using PPP's many features to
provide a standard method for synchronous data compression. The
encapsulation uses a header structure based on that of the ITU-T
Recommendation V.120. This RFC is the product of the Point-to-Point
Protocol Extensions Working Group of the IETF.
