Point-to-point protocol (PPP) is a computer network protocol used to transfer a datagram between two directly connected (point-to-point) computers. This protocol is used for a very basic level of connectivity providing data linkage between the computers. Advertisements Point-to-point protocol ...
PPPoE (Point-to-Point Protocol Over Ethernet) is a network tunnel protocol which encapsulates the point-to-point protocol (PPP) in the Ethernet framework. Due to the integration of PPP protocol in the protocol, it realizes the authentication, encryption and compression functions that traditional Eth...
The NTLM protocol was a practical solution for Windows devices for a long time: A user just had to sign in once and then gain direct access to various network services. However, this authentication method is now considered unsafe and is no longer in use. How does NTLM work, and… ...
What is Network? In the today world, Two devices are in network if a process in one device is able to exchange information with a process in another device. Networks are known as a medium of connections between nodes (set of devices) or computers. A network is consist of group of comput...
Like Ethernet and PPP, PPPoE operates at the network access layer in theTransmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol(TCP/IP) and at the data link layer in theOpen Systems Interconnection (OSI) model. The protocol is intended for use with remote access broadband technologies that offer a bridge...
The final protocol is ARP, Address Resolution Protocol, which finds the device's hardware address using its known IP address.Layer 4: Data link layerThe data link layer defines a packet’s network protocol type. Examples include Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) and Ethernet protocols. PPP is a...
A virtual private network, or VPN, is an encrypted connection that secures data transmission between devices over the Internet. This encrypted connection safeguards sensitive information from potential threats and unauthorized access. In enterprise environments, VPNs facilitate secure connectivity to ...
NCP negotiation mainly deals with network-layer parameters, such as IPCP and IPv6CP, in PPP packets. A PPPoE client mainly uses IPCP to obtain the IP address or IP address segment for network access. The NCP negotiation process is similar to the LCP negotiation process. After NCP negotiation ...
The working standard for the PPPoE protocol was published by the IETF in 1999. The IETF specification for PPPoE is RFC 2516. PPPoE expands the original capability of PPP by allowing a virtual point to point connection over a multipoint Ethernet network architecture. PPPoE is a protocol that is...
