The Internet standard for serial communications, PPP defines how data packets are exchanged with other Internet-based systems using a modem connection. PPP is documented in RFC 1661) |
| Point-to-Point-Protokoll über Ethernet | Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet (A specification for connecting users on an Ethernet network to the Internet through a broadband connection, such as a single DSL line, wireless device, or cable modem. Using PPPoE and a broadband modem, LAN users can gain individual authenticated access to high-speed data networks. By combining Ethernet and Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP), PPPoE provides an efficient way to create a separate connection for each user to a remote server) |
| Point-to-Point-Tunneling-Protokoll | Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (Networking technology that supports multiprotocol virtual private networks (VPNs), enabling remote users to access corporate networks securely across the Internet or other networks by dialing into an Internet service provider (ISP) or by connecting directly to the Internet.

This means that users can remotely run applications that depend on particular network protocols. PPTP is described in RFC 2637) |
