I have a problem with the following statement:

"... (L2F) permits the tunneling of the link layer (i.e., HDLC or SLIP frames) of higher level protocols..."

Are you implying that SLIP is a higher evel protocol than L2F? They are both Link Layer protocols. (see TCP/IP model, OSI model.) If you are implying that you are transposing the link layer frames/packets of SLIP or PPP then you should explicitly say so. The whole section needs to be expanded to decompress the geekspeak into vernacular. Stephen Charles Thompson (talk) 02:35, 26 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
