What remote network protocols are available
from the PPP modem pools?

    Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) is fully supported by UITS and is the only means for connecting to the 278-5620, 278-5621, and 856-5619 modem pools. PPP is the Internet standard for transporting native protocols over serial links and is analogous to Ethernet over serial lines.

    UITS supports PPP implementations for DOS, Windows (95, 98, NT, and 2000) and Mac OS. The UWSG also supports PPP implementations for Linux.

    UITS does not support SLIP.
