- Yes, this is a FAQ, but here is the answer (one more time)!
-
- All versions of HP-UX 8.0x include ppl, the "Point-to-Point
- Link", which is an implementation of SLIP. For more information,
- try man ppl or see HP manual 98194-60522 "Using Serial Line IP
- Protocols".
-
- HP does not currently supply an implementation of either CSLIP or
- PPP.
