Reading between the lines (see bellow) it seems that PPP is NOT encapsulated
in LAPD. It looks like PPP starts encapsulating network traffic on its own
as soon as LAPD has set up the ISDN call. Please correct me if I am wrong.
Thank You.

"3.3.  Link Dead (physical-layer not ready)

   The link necessarily begins and ends with this phase.  When an
   external event (such as carrier detection or network administrator
   configuration) indicates that the physical-layer is ready to be used,
   PPP will proceed to the Link Establishment phase.

   During this phase, the LCP automaton (described later) will be in the
   Initial or Starting states.  The transition to the Link Establishment
   phase will signal an Up event to the LCP automaton."

Here are some RFC's that you might read that might help.

Is it a true statement to say that if your using ppp encapsulation on your
interface, the ppp packets are encapsulated in the LAPD packets. If not,
where else would ppp packets be encapsulated?
I have found no document showing the relationship of ppp and LAPD if you
have some reference I would greatly appreciate.
