Hi,

I've done some IrNET Testing among two linux machines, and It's works
really well. In the IrNET docs/irnet.h is written that, since using ppp
as glue between IrDA Stack and TCP/IP it's possible to use
encryption/compression. To activate that's PPP-things its necessary to
fetch the latest pppd and then patch the pppd sources with this features.
What I'm not understanding
is, in which layer ppp is sitting and how its interact with other layers ?

It is right that using IrNET, the following frame order is used

| IR FRAME | PPP FRAME | IP FRAME | TCP FRAME

This means that using encryption/compression, only the succeed TCP/IP
frames were encryp/compr. ? And all IP-Adress handling is done by pppd ?
