Hello,
I am sure that all the RFC gurus out there are going to laugh at this, but I really
can't find the official protocol number
for IPCP; can anyone help me?
Best regards,
Manuel Arriaga
PS: I tried looking in RFC 1332 but couldn't find any referrence to the protocol
number; the same happened with the "RFC
Protocol Index" ( http://lurch.cit.buffalo.edu/Misc/RFC/rfcproto.html ).
PPS: This may sound stupid, but is IPCP already done using IP? I understand it is one
of the available "Network Control Protocols"
used precisely for negotiating the network-layer protocol used over a PPP link, but I
am wondering whether ipchains might
be blocking these packets when I use the generic
ipchains -A input [-p all] -j DENY
ipchains -A output [-p all] -j DENY
rules before establishing a ppp link ... a ppp connection seems to be up (reported by
pppd), but ifconfig only lists the
local interface... Can ipchains be already blocking IPCP traffic?
