Apple comments on ARA 3.0 and PPP control panel; OT/PPP Strip 1.0.2 released
Thomas Weyer (Communication Technologies Evangelist at Apple) adds:
a. ARA 3.0 already includes a control strip for ARA (ARAP/PPP) connectivity.
b. ATCP (AppleTalk Control Protocol) is not tunneled over PPP, as one reader suggests, but rather runs native as another PPP service. Just as you run TCP/IP across a PPP link. PPP is inherently a simultaneously multi protocol link layer." [These distinctions are getting past my level of expertise on such matters!]
OT/PPP Strip 1.0.2 released Meanwhile, Dennis Wilkinson has announced the release of OT/PPP Strip 1.0.2. OT/PPP Strip is a control strip that gives access to Apple's Open Transport/PPP 1.0.x and Apple Remote Access 3.0 settings from the Control Strip.Version 1.0.2 is a minor revision that adds support for controlling Apple Remote Access 3.0.
