ATCP: AppleTalk Control Protocol

AppleTalk Control Protocol (ATCP) is the protocol that establishes and configures AppleTalk over PPP. ATCP is responsible for configuring, enabling, and disabling the AppleTalk protocol modules on both ends of the point-to-point (PPP) link. ATCP uses the same packet exchange mechanism as the Link Control Protocol (LCP). ATCP packets may not be exchanged until PPP has reached the Network-Layer Protocol phase. ATCP packets received before this phase is reached should be silently discarded.
