If you look on page 105 of the BCRAN book it says that PPP uses NCP to
configure Layer 3 protocols not necessarily the Layer 3 address. IPCP is
the NCP used to establish and configure the IP protocol. But on the other
side why would you use an NCP to have the PPP session support the protocol
and not the individual station address?
