Opened state. Echo-Request and Echo-Reply packets received in any
state other than the LCP Opened state SHOULD be silently discarded.

MFC after: 2 weeks
dial-on-demand, packet filtering, idle timeouts, etc). The IPX support
is pretty much there but more work needs to be done in sys-bsd.c for
the interface ioctls (Linux has a very different way of configuring IPX
interfaces).
Along the way some things have temporarily been lost due to very messy
conflicts. I will recover them shortly when I can think clearer.
The main one is the local:remote address override in pap-secrets and
chap-secrets. Some other home-grown features (dns1,dns2) have been
implemented differently. Microsoft's chap client auth hacks have been
implemented. There are bound to be more rough edges... The changes for
connect-max-retries doesn't fit well with the dial-on-demand code.
This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.
