5	The pppd application seems to very stable. It has been tested using
6	the example application with the i386/pc586 and m68k/sbc5206e BSPs.
7	The tests were executed using a null modem serial cable to connect
8	with a UNIX box running either the ppp or pppd application and with
9	an external modem to dial up a local ISP.
10
11	If you have problems getting your target to make consistent connections
12	with an ISP, the problem is most likely with the ppp options. First
13	try using the "novj" and "noaccomp" options. If you have questions
14	about what other option values are available for the rtems_pppd_set_option
15	function, please look at the pppd.8 man page file or the the source code.
16	The majority of options that are documented in man page should work
17	with this function call.
18
19	The pppd application requires the BSP termios driver support task
20	driven I/O. Below is a list of known issues that need to be resolved:
21
22	- pppd locks up when it receives large packet pings (> 1500 bytes)
23	- pppd occasionaly locks up with mbuf allocation error
24	(problem is rare and may be BSP related)
25
26	If you find any other problems or fix some problems, please post your
27	changes to the RTEMS mailing list.
28
29	Good Luck
