Depending upon what you really want to do (is it run ppp? Or is it, get IP

               https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-6lo-6lobac/

There is some userspace code out there from Carsten I think.

Michael, the 6lobac you mentioned looks exactly what I needed. But it looks a quite new standard and no a real implementation on Linux or Windows, right?
