<abstract>
<t>The Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP)provides a standard method of encapsulating Network Layer protocol information over point-to-point links.  PPP also defines an extensible Link Control Protocol, which allows negotiation of an, Authentication Protocol for authenticating its peer before allowing Network Layer protocols to transmit over the link.</t>
<t>This document defines two protocols for Authentication: the Password Authentication Protocol and the Challenge-Handshake Authentication Protocol.  This memo is the product of the Point-to-Point Protocol Working Group of the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF). Comments on this memo should be submitted to the ietf-ppp@ucdavis.edu mailing list.</t></abstract></front>
