Title : PPP Over Ethernet (PPPoE) Extensions for Credit Flow and Link Metrics
Author(s) : B. Berry, H. Holgate
Filename : draft-bberry-pppoe-credit-02.txt
Pages : 20
Date : 2004-10-12
The Point-to-Point Over Ethernet (PPPoE) Protocol [3] provides a
standard method for encapsulating Point-to-Point Protocols (PPP) [1]
over Ethernet.
This document extends the PPPoE protocol with a credit based flow
control mechanism and Link Quality Metric report. The PPPoE
specification is also extended to allow TLV Tags in the PPP Session
Stage. These extensions are optional to retain backwards
compatibility and at the same time provide for future extendibility.

NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
