Hello Peter,
One of the reasons I'm going for PPP is because of it's auto-negotiating
feature. To my knowledge SLIP has no such feature, and I think that's a
need-to-have. I definitely want my highly embedded system to be able to fetch
an IP of it's own.
Maybe I've missed something!?
Thanks,
Jacob Dall
