•
Internet Protocol bridging between an AP and a computer. To establish
an Internet Protocol bridge with an AP, ensure the computer includes the
appropriate Telnet software with PPP and TCP/IP protocols. Using Telnet,
a remote computer can connect to any AP on an Ethernet network, as
long as data transfers through IP packets.
A PPP link provides the option of using a direct serial link or modem to
extend wired Ethernet topologies.
Once in PPP mode, the AP automatically attempts to communicate with
the other device using the
Data-Link Bridging (DLB)
protocol. An AP
using DLB communicates on the MAC level, and receives and transmits
Ethernet frames.
If the other device does not support DLB, the AP attempts to communicate
using
Internet Protocol Control Protocol (IPCP)
. An AP using IPCP
communicates on the IP level, and receives and transmits
IP (Internet
Protocol)
packets.
