DESCRIPTION
       You can use the ppp component to create a ppp profile that you associate with a tunnel using the tunnel
       component. For more information about creating a tunnel see net tunnel.

EXAMPLES
       create ppp my_ppp

       Creates a PPP profile called my_ppp.

       list ppp all-properties

       Displays all the properties of all the PPP profiles.

OPTIONS
       app-service
	    Specifies the name of the application service to which the object belongs. The default value is none.
	    Note: If the strict-updates option is enabled on the application service that owns the object, you cannot
	    modify or delete the object. Only the application service can modify or delete the object.

       defaults-from
	    Specifies the existing profile from which the system imports settings for the new profile. The default
	    value is ppp.

       description
	    User defined description.

       glob Displays the items that match the glob expression. See help glob for a description of glob expression
	    syntax.

       lcp-echo-failure
	    Specifies the number of consecutive PPP LCP echo messages that must go unanswered for the server to drop
	    PPP connection. For example, if the server sends number of consecutive PPP LCP Echo Request messages that
	    go unanswered (by Echo Reply), it will close the PPP connection. The default value is 4.

       lcp-echo-interval
	    Specifies the interval, in seconds, between the PPP LCP Echo Request messages that the server sends to
	    the peer (client). The default value is 30.

       name Specifies a unique name for the component. This option is required for the commands create and modify.

       partition
	    Displays the administrative partition within which this component resides.

       regex
	    Displays the items that match the regular expression. The regular expression must be preceded by an at
	    sign (@[regular expression]) to indicate that the identifier is a regular expression. See help regex for
	    a description of regular expression syntax.

       vj   Specifies whether the system uses Van Jacobson Header Compression (also known as VJ compression, or just
	    Header Compression), which is an option in most versions of PPP. VJ is a data compression protocol
	    described in RFC 1144, specifically designed by Van Jacobson to improve TCP/IP performance over slow
	    serial links. The default value is disabled.
