Hi,
I'm trying to write a driver which sends ppp packets through the =
ethernet NIC.
In order avoid implementing all the ppp protocol I want to use the =
existing ppp driver in FreeBSD.
Is there a way to send to the ppp driver data and get it back covered =
with the appropriate ppp frame?
If there is, how can I indicate the different stages in the ppp =
protocol?
I looked in the implementation of the ppp which uses the ppp driver but =
I think it does some assumptions (like using ppp with the modem device) =
that confuses me.

please send your replies to me.
Thank you,
--
