 NAME
      ppl.ipool - pool of local Internet addresses

 DESCRIPTION
      Local addresses for serial connections can be assigned in one of two
      ways:

           o  Local administrator specifies the IP address in file
              ppl.remotes.

           o  Local administrator does not specify the local address in file
              ppl.remotes, but rather leaves that field blank and specifies
              a pool of IP addresses to be allocated for serial connections.
              In this case ppl chooses the first unallocated address from
              that pool and uses it for the local address (see ppl(1)).

      The ppl.ipool file contains Internet addresses in dotted decimal
      format, one address per line.  Lines that begin with a # are ignored.
