Migrating From Asynchronous Solaris PPP to Solaris PPP 4.0 (Tasks)

Earlier versions of the Oracle Solaris OS included a different PPP implementation, Asynchronous Solaris PPP (asppp). If you want to convert peers that run asppp to the newer PPP 4.0, you need to run a conversion script. This chapter covers the following topics in PPP conversion:

The chapter uses a sample asppp configuration to explain how to accomplish PPP conversion. For a description of the differences between Solaris PPP 4.0 and asppp, go to Which Version of Solaris PPP to Use.
