SLIP

TCP/IP Networking Using SLIP

• There is no TCP/IP standard determining usage of SLIP as a link protocol
• Various implementations are known
• AS/400 implementation is meant to establish SLIP connections dynamically
• IP addresses can be defined or negotiated
• If IP addresses are assigned dynamically, then
  • Routing entries need to be generated automatically, in most cases
  • In this case IP forwarding is limited to the adjacent host
