# NAME
*interfaces-ppp* - PPP extensions for the interfaces(5) file format
# DESCRIPTION
The Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) usually is used for dial-up lines,
most common for over Digital Subscriber Lines (DSL) to connect to an
Internet Service Provider (ISP). The following options allow to set
up PPP dial-up connections.
# PPP-RELATED OPTIONS
*ppp-provider* _provider_
Denotes the file name of the _provider_ configuration file
within the _/etc/ppp/peers/_ directory which should be used
to set up the PPP connection.
*ppp-physdev* _interfaces_
Denotes the physical (underlay) interface which is used to
set up the PPP connection.
# EXAMPLES
A PPP connection to _local-ISP_:
```
auto ppp0
iface ppp0
ppp-provider local-ISP
```
