The PPP Link Statistics Window
The PPP Link Status menu option opens the PPP Link Statistics window, which
enables you to view color-coded statistics related to the PPP (Point-to-Point
Protocol) link at the selected interface.
The Point-to-Point Protocol is a standard method of transporting multiprotocol
datagrams over point-to-point links. A PPP Link provides full-duplex
communication between the endpoints, allowing a simultaneous bidirectional
operation that should maintain the order in which data packets are transmitted.
