Generic HDLC layer currently supports:

1. Frame Relay (ANSI, CCITT, Cisco and no LMI)
|

|

- Normal (routed) and Ethernet-bridged (Ethernet device emulation)
|

interfaces can share a single PVC.
|

- ARP support (no InARP support in the kernel - there is an
|
||||
experimental InARP user-space daemon available on:
|

http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/net/hdlc/).
|

|
||||
2. raw HDLC - either IP (IPv4) interface or Ethernet device emulation
|
||||
3. Cisco HDLC
|
||||
4. PPP
