I am new to this group and do not know much about PPP. I just want to know 
how IP address is allocated in PPP, does the end user has to set it of the 
host being dialed can actually allocate before hand? 

Also what are the advantage of PPP over slip? Is there a FAQ somewhere that 
I can find answers to my questions? Thank you.
