+It can be noted that when bridging PPP channels, the PPP session is not locally
+terminated, and no local PPP interface is created. PPP frames arriving on one
+channel are directly passed to the other channel, and vice versa.
+
+The PPP channel does not need to be kept open. Only the session PPPoX data
+sockets need to be kept open.
+
+More generally, it is also possible in the same way to e.g. bridge a PPPoL2TP
+PPP channel with other types of PPP channels, such as PPPoE.
+
+See more details for the PPP side in ppp_generic.rst.

Outcome of HW handling packets, the XFRM core can't count hard, soft limits.
The HW/driver are responsible to perform it and provide accurate data when
-xdo_dev_state_update_curlft() is called. In case of one of these limits
+xdo_dev_state_update_stats() is called. In case of one of these limits
occuried, the driver needs to call to xfrm_state_check_expire() to make sure
that XFRM performs rekeying sequence.
