|
<p>If your connection to the internet is through a modem, or
|
|
you wish to provide other people with dialup connections to
|
|
the internet using FreeBSD, you have the option of using PPP
|
|
or SLIP. Furthermore, two varieties of PPP are provided:
|
|
<em>user</em> (sometimes referred to as iijppp) and
|
|
<em>kernel</em>. The procedures for configuring both types
|
|
of PPP, and for setting up SLIP are described in this
|
|
chapter.
