MP is Multilnk PPP is RFC1990. MPPP is *usually* MP, but it is bogus, don't
use it, use MP.

A predecessor to BACP basically. They wrote an information RFC on it but
I forget the number, maybe 1974?

Both are right. DBA is a *concept* and as such varies widely in use and
implementation.

Different things, same RFC - RFC21215. Bandwith Allocation Protocol and
Bandwith Allocation Control Protocol

I think this is just a concept - sometimes useds interchangably with DBA.
Also Demand Routing, Dial On Demand, etc.
