Hi,

>Why did you think that?
Since I got a strange package with protocol field 0xFD(not 0x00FD). 
I've read ppp_generic.txt and got that the upper layer should pass packages to ppp_generic driver with two octets protocol field. 
So this should be finished on l2tp layer(channel preferably) or other kinds of channel.

You are right.

Really? But in my machine(which kernel is 2.6, Debian system) has ppp_mppe module but no any patch. Also has other compress module such as bsd_comp, deflate.
Does this mean that kernel support it and I can use it? 

Thanks so much for your kindly reply.
Regards.
