4The PPP stack is a kernel module that interfaces with the network stack.
5Thanks to its modular nature new protocols and extensions can be added without
6having to recompile the PPP stack.

12The kernel API is mostly intended for developers who want to write extension modules,
13but you can also create and control PPP interfaces from within your own kernel modules.

15You should use the userland API for your applications because it exports helper
16classes for accessing the kernel module from userland. Alternatively, you can talk
17to the PPP interface manager directly through an \c ioctl() interface.
